Hello folks, I have a gentoo installation as a guest oks running inside sun virtualbox. After doing a proper clone, everything seems to work fine, except the network interface.
I noticed that, after cloning, the eth0 interface has been renamed to eth1 inside the cloned vm. I do not why this happened. Of course, the new vm clone image has another mac address for the nic. eth0 is not used inside the cloned vm. Is there a way to explicitly define the nic names in a way that I can make sure, that a certain nic (or mac address) is always assigned the name eth0? I heard, that something can be done using udev rules, but is this the intended way? How could this be done? Thank you very much for your help. Kind regards, André
