Fix eth0 on fresh install of Debian 9
April 24, 2018
You can disable these stable names and go back to the kernel-provided ones
(which don’t have a stable order) in one of two ways:
– Put “net.ifnames=0″ into the kernel command line (e. g. in
and add
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=”net.ifnames=0”
the run “update-grub”
– Disable the default *.link rules with
“ln -s /dev/null /etc/systemd/network/99-default.link”
and rebuild the initrd with “update-initramfs -u”.
The above is from a debian readme file.
