Comment 30 for bug 60388

I have this problem with both 2.6.26-5 and with Alpha 5 Ubuntu 8.10 (2.5.27-3). Solving it with a work around at the moment on 2.6.26 by using the terminal command ... sudo ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:1c:25:1e:0f:e6 or by putting the command in the rc.local file.

I have not tried a work-around for 2.6.27.....that looks like a different problem but the same end result (no eth0).
