Hard to say at the moment. The machine is on 24/7 and is serving a rather large company. I might be able to try to shut it down for sometime late Friday. But can't promise anything. If I do should expect the mainline kernel NOT to change the interfaces names ? -- You received this bug

Additional bump - on kernel version 67 now and the issue still exists. Every time a new kernel installs, after a reboot the network interface names are changed (mostly digits inside the enP--->p5s3 mask in my case) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel
