Public bug reported:
After upgrading from hardy to intrepid, my VirtualBox tap-like ethernet
interface vbox0 stopped working. It seems that the static ip address I
defined in /etc/network/interfaces somehow no longer gets assigned at
boot time. The interface comes up, but with only an ipv6 interface. If
I manually run "ifdown vbox0" and then "ifup vbox0", the correct ipv4
address gets assigned.
The command I used to create vbox0:
sudo VBoxAddIF vbox0 myusername
/etc/network/interfaces:
auto vbox0
iface vbox0 inet static
address 192.168.10.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
virtualbox-user myusername
Installed package:
virtualbox-ose 2.0.4-dfsg-0ubuntu1
linux-image-generic 2.6.27.9.13
** Affects: virtualbox-ose (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
