From 9a8bfee954f9acb2b27116abbc3b8f57c74a73b7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Darshaka Pathirana Date: Sat, 2 Mar 2019 02:22:12 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Add DHCP setting for Predictable Network Interface Names Predictable Network Interface Names were missing the default /etc/network/interfaces file when using the --defaultinterfaces option. Added a Networking-Section in the man page to clarify how the network is configured in the target system and fixed the documentation for the options --vmfile and --vm. Both options automatically enable the --defaultinterface option and not the --nointerfaces option.
