Bruce,

thanks for looking at this.  Unfortunately it was luser error - I'd
copied an entry in grub.cfg, changed the kernel version but failed
to change rootfs=.  Often I'm already running the kernel I plan to
use (on the host system), but I figured the differences between
4.18.6 and 4.18.9 were small enough [¹].

Chrooted to it a few minutes ago, the persistent net rules looked
fine.  Went to look at the syslog in chroot, not present.  It's been
a bad week, didn't immediately think of the obvious.  Booted it, no
modules loaded.  Checked that there were modules in /lib/modules,
tried to modprobe atl1c, failed, module not found.  That's when I
realised that I was running 4.18.9 but the modules I was looking at
were for 4.18.6.

Sorry for the noise.

1. For a multiuser system, of course, that is not true with the
latest bugfix which also turned out to be a privilege escalation
fix.
