0How to fix “Device eth0 does not seem to be present, delaying initialization.”

After clone the VM within Virtual box, I receive the error message “

Device eth0 does not seem to be present, delaying initialization.” when start the network service.

The /etc/sysconfigu/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 does exist. The issue is that the network device eth0 is non longer exist. The VM clone processes create the new device eth1.

The device file is at /sys/class/net.

ip link show

We can rename the device by using the up command.

ip link set eth1 name eth0

After the device being renamed, we can successfully bring up the network interface.
