 |
|
| Code: |
googly rahul # /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start
* Caching service dependencies... [ ok ]
* Bringing up interface eth0
* ERROR: interface eth0 does not exist
* Ensure that you have loaded the correct kernel module for your hardware
* ERROR: net.eth0 failed to start
|
| Code: |
googly rahul # lspci | grep Ether
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4401-B0 100Base-TX (rev 02)
|
| Code: |
googly rahul # lsmod | grep b44
b44 22828 0

The motherboard for the laptop was replaced - and the problem started after that. However, since there was no change in the hardware, I do not see what the problem is. And as far as I know the correct kernel module is loaded.

Well, that explains it, so apparently, eth0 has been moved to eth1. I would like to move it back to eth0, if that is possible!
And I would like to do this, because adding net.eth1 to the default runlevel does not work - as in it does not start on boot!

Delete /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and reboot.
