Public bug reported: Hello all,
To comply to SystemD's way of thinking, NIC names can be changed assuming my MAC addresses. I have then changed /etc/systemd/10-net.link assuming the nomenclature in https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.link.html. Expected behavior: When restart, changes can be taken into account and NIC names changed, just like udev udev raw rules in /etc/udev/rules.d. Got: NIC names not changed. However: whane re-updating initramfs ( # update-initramfs -u ), it works. Question: why is udev not reading SystemD link files directly in the root FS, but is able to read udev rules.d files ? Distro : Ubuntu 16.04.4 Thanks, ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1652019 Title: udev does not read LINK files dynamically To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1652019/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
