From: Auke Kok Subject: 2.6.19-rc6-mm2: Network device naming starts at 1 instead of 0 Date: Tue, 05 Dec 2006 14:07:39 -0800 Message-ID: <4575EDAB.6060305@intel.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: Linux Kernel Mailing List , NetDev Return-path: Received: from mga03.intel.com ([143.182.124.21]:27424 "EHLO mga03.intel.com" rhost-flags-OK-OK-OK-OK) by vger.kernel.org with ESMTP id S1760214AbWLEWHx (ORCPT ); Tue, 5 Dec 2006 17:07:53 -0500 To: Andrew Morton Sender: netdev-owner@vger.kernel.org List-Id: netdev.vger.kernel.org [resend] Quick note: I loaded up 2.6.19-rc6-mm2 on a platform here and noticed that the onboard e1000 NIC was enumerated to eth1 instead of eth0. on 2.6.18.5 and any other kernel I used before, it was properly named eth0 after startup. eth0 itself is completely missing (-ENODEV). I'll try to see if I can point out the culprit, but perhaps this rings a bell to anyone. Cheers, Auke
