CentOS: eth0 not starting on boot
- by Cameron Aziz
Whenever I reboot a CentOS Hyper-V VM, eth0 does not start automatically. All I need to do is perform ifup eth0 and all is fixed, but that isn't feasible from ssh! I am starting in runlevel 3.
After I perform ifup eth0 on the console:
[root@localhost ~]# ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:15:5D:2B:2B:07
