[orbit-user] Problem with loading Image

[Haris Kremo]

I have some (long) past experience which might be useful. So old that
I cannot remember making these notes. Thus I take them as still
useful.

Quote from http://www.orbit-lab.org/wiki/HowTo/Bluetooth/Enabling

In order to save the image, and be able to login to the node by means
other than the serial console delete the following file if exists:

node1-1:/etc/udev/rules.d# rm z25_persistent-net.rules

Otherwise, saving an image causes the interfaces to "shift" from eth0
and eth1 to eth2 and eth3, and the node is after imaging accessible
only through the serial console.

Ivan can confirm...

Hope it helps,

H.
