And that then makes it even weirder since all my Dell towers (Optiplex GX620 x86_64 machines and Optiplex GX280 i686 machines) are all uniformly coming up p2p1 for the motherboard nic (they don't have any add-on nics). Maybe it's the way they are designed... IAC, my Dell 2U PowerEdge helped me diagnose the problem and chase it into the initramfs and biosdevname. Thanks! Regards, Mike -- Michael H.
