Hi,
I upgraded my Debian system from Bullseye to Bookworm earlier today. It mostly went pretty
smoothly, but I have two questions:
1. I remembered to change the interface name from eth0 to enX0 but couldn't connect to
any regular network services (ssh, httpd) after the system was rebooted. I used the Xen
shell to change the interface name back to eth0, and could connect again after a reboot.
Are some systems happy to stay as eth0? This is quite an old system and has been upgraded
in place over several years (started as a Debian 5.x (Lenny) system in 2009.
2. The sysv-rc-conf package is being held back when I apt-get upgrade. If I try to
upgrade it, apt wants to remove a load of packages (about 30). Can I safely just remove
the sysv-rc-conf package? /sbin/init is a symlink to /lib/systemd/systemd, so I presume
I'm using systemd and don't need sysv-rc-conf?
