Having already upgraded 2 home boxes to Buster over recent weeks, I will today start to do so with my VPS. However I already have a query that you might be able to help with Andy, and which might be useful to other customers. It concerns interface names. I followed the advice on Debian and Udev sites and the name Udev is suggesting for my eth0 is some preposterous one along the lines of epx followed by the complete MAC address (OK a slight exaggeration). That is the only one returned by
udevadm test-builtin net_id /sys/class/net/eth0 2>/dev/nullOutputs
ID_NET_NAME_MAC=enx00165e00036c
ID_OUI_FROM_DATABASE=Precision I/O
This is of course too unwieldy to actually use so I followed through the instructions for changing it to say eth0 to save editing all the /etc files which explicitly name the interface.
None of the files seem to exist. Is this because it is all under the control of Xen rather than the virtual machine? i.e. can I stop worrying?
Sorry, I seem to be asking a lot of questions lately
