Hi, Thanks for the replies.

The problem I'm having is that udev names the interfaces from /etc/udev/rules.d/z45_persistent-net-generator.rules And there seems to be know way to guarantee that the interface you pxe boot from will be named eth0 by the persistent-net-generator.rules So the boot fails. (is that right or am I way off course?) I need to find a way to create an new rule in z45_persistent-net-generator.rules or maybe EOF a rule into /etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules (I think). I've stopped the boot with break=top and I can see /etc/udev/rules.d/z45_persistent-net-generator.rules but no /etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules I feel like an aprentice butcher. Chris.
