Hi! I'm running into problems combining network device hotplugging and udev network device renaming rules.
Everything on its own works well: - I have a udev rule in /etc/udev/rules.d/... telling udev to rename an ethernet device based on its MAC address from say eth_old to eth_new. When I plug the device in its name it correctly changed by udev. - I have rc_hotplug="net.eth_old !net.*" in /etc/rc.conf. When I plug in the device it is automatically started and the dhcpcd client runs for it. When I combine both by using rc_hotplug="net.eth_new !net.*" then the device is renamed but no hotplugging occurs. When I use rc_hotplug="net.eth_old !net.*" then OpenRC tries to start up eth_old but fails to do so, because it has already been renamed to eth_new. Am I missing something here? Any help?
