Naming networkinterfaces using udev
Usually the SMR's are configured to use DHCP at networkinterface 'eth0' and have a static IP (10.0.1.2) at interface 'eth1'. In order to get the wireless netcard to use DHCP we want to rename it to 'eth0'. This can be achieved by using the udev system. Changes are done in the file
/etc/udev/rules.d/75-network-devices.rules
Add the following two lines:
SUBSYSTEMS=="pci", DRIVERS=="via-rhine", NAME="eth1" SUBSYSTEMS=="pci", DRIVERS=="yenta_cardbus", NAME="eth0"
This will work on the VIA motherboards. The "via-rhine" should be change to "r8168" on the Jetway Atom boards since these are using a Realtek network controller.
