Ah, the bootdmesg shows that eth0 is mac '00:50:56*', which is a VMWare
NIC. For some reason, extras/rule_generator/75-persistent-net-
generator.rules filters out that NIC. It didn't use to in lucid, but
does in both debian sid and in ubuntu natty.
I don't know exactly what the reason for this is, so marking this
confirmed so a udev pro can answer whether it's meant to be like this.
Ben, you should be able to work around this by editing
/lib/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules and commenting out
line 35, which reads:
ENV{MATCHADDR}=="00:0c:29:*|00:50:56:*",
GOTO="persistent_net_generator_end"
