I've experienced this happening when the kernel for whatever reason reports to udev different identifiers for the network card. This can be from using a different kernel, a kernel that is changing the interface's MAC address for some reason, etc. Check /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules Chance -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
