I'm having a networking problem with a UML installation. I can boot the
uml guest and get consoles and I can even get networking configured and
working, but when I reboot the guest it complains that it can't find the
ethernet device and /sbin/ifconfig shows that the ethernet device available
is one greater than previously. IOW, the first time, it's eth0, the second
eth1, the third eth3, etc. Obviously, this means
that /etc/network/interfaces doesn't have the right eth device. I can then
manually configure the current device whether it is eth0 or eth22, but I'd
rather not have to do that every time I boot the guest. So my question is
why does the device keep incrementing? What controls it, and how can I
make it stop?
Thanks,
Will
