That because it is not a bug, it is a feature and it is working as
designed.
It is/was broken on my system since both of my network cards get random
MAC addresses on each boot (hardware issue best I can tell), but it is
easily fixed by writing a couple of udev rules to assign eth0 and eth1 by
PCI address instead of MAC address.
The file is /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules.
It is generated by 75-persistent-net-generator.rules.
hehe, thanks I was also interested in it somehow.
I was always wondering why it changes after copying the system.
I am bound to a static IP for most of the time coming from my provider, so
last time I changed the firewall I wrote an init.d script to setup the hw
of the old card ;-) this way my interface stayed the same after copying the
system.
thanks for explainging
regards
