After appliance import: Network (of appliance) not working

Post by dschei-eidsch »

Hi,

I am testing the "import/export appliance" feature in my installed 3.0.2 VirtualBox. So I setup a small debian guest an exported it as appliance. Then deleted it from VirtualBox and afterwards used the "import appliance" assistant. One major problem I found: After the import, network (of the imported guest) is not working anymore. Any hints on what's up?

TIA

remove
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
in your guest and reboot it.
Name may differ slightly it's a file that contains network card names and mac-addresses.
