What did you dist-upgrade? * debian edu etch -> debian etchandhalf * debian edu etch -> debian edu etch + debian etchandhalf * debian edu etch -> debian edu lenny * debian edu etch -> debian edu lenny + debian etchandhalf >Before even try it, I crate an image of its partition with partimage (i >have main, ltsp, workstation profile in one sistem on a single >partition).

Would be nice if you posted the actual changes you needed to make, so this thread works not only as helpdesk for you but also is informational for others with similar problems/interests, and for developers to improve the situation. >Problem: the network does not worl as aspected.

Look at /usr/share/doc/udev/NEWS.Debian.gz (search for "net"), and more specifically grep /etc/udev/rules.d/* for eth (the actual filename has changed over time so no longer match documentation in the NEWS file). If you (like me) dislike udev handling your naming of ethernet devices, you can either (to use new homemade names) use ifrename or (to get the old behavior of classic naming in the order you yourself choose to load your NIC modules) avoid initramfs-tools and instead use yaird (which does not invoke udev early in the boot process). ...but neither of these approaches is official Debian edu ones. - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkjkli8ACgkQn7DbMsAkQLiq5QCghN1BuEePtnVbNey0tMvRFv1m DqAAoJHSzkdxs64Yfxnrlr6hVHxUc9OP =B/Vl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
