I'm pretty sure mine is done with a udev rules file. I never had mine on the kernel line. This is the list of rules files I have: root@fireball / # ls -al /etc/udev/rules.d/ total 20 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 28 13:29 . drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Nov 28 13:29 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2064 Apr 27 2021 69-libmtp.rules -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1903 Apr 4 2012 70-persistent-cd.rules -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 814 Jan 1 2008 70-persistent-net.rules -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 22 2015 80-net-name-slot.rules -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Nov 27 17:53 .keep_sys-fs_udev-0 root@fireball / # I can't recall which of the two about net it is tho. Thing is, it seems to work with eudev but not udev. I'd think it would but based on experience, it doesn't. I guess if someone is switching a remote machine, or any machine, and they want to be sure, add the option to the kernel line to be safe. That may be a more dependable method. Either way, at least maybe these threads will help someone else avoid the problem. Dale :-) :-)
