The particular case we were talking about was that the hardware doesn't do PCI device detection in a deterministic fashion under some circumstances.
While not having tested RHEL 5.2 yet, I think that the most likely cause is not the PCI device detection but the order in which modules are loaded - with udev there is no fixed loading order guaranteed, or at least that's my impression.
I'm afraid you're stuck with using HWADDR in the ifcfg-eth* files
Be happy that these exist and you don't have to write udev rules ;-) -- Bogdan Costescu IWR, University of Heidelberg, INF 368, D-69120 Heidelberg, Germany Phone: +49 6221 54 8869/8240, Fax: +49 6221 54 8868/8850 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ rhelv5-list mailing list rhelv5-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv5-list
