Running through the snippets in an attempt to resolve another issue and
I noticed the following in post_instyall_network_config
if [ -f "/etc/modprobe.conf" ] && [ $IFNAME ]; then
grep \$IFNAME /etc/modprobe.conf | sed "s/\$IFNAME/$iname/" >>
/etc/modprobe.conf.cobbler
grep -v \$IFNAME /etc/modprobe.conf >> /etc/modprobe.conf.new
rm -f /etc/modprobe.conf
mv /etc/modprobe.conf.new /etc/modprobe.conf
fi
not sure about RHEL, but Fedora does not use modprobe.conf for this type
of configuration. I created a similar thread with subject 'Arbitrary NIC
naming' back on 2/24/09 according to Jasper Capel:
Modprobe.conf just isn't used for that purpose in F10
anymore.
I'll file a bug against this as well and update this thread with the bug ID
