Migrate virtual machine from vmware server 1.0 to vmware workstation 6.0
When open a virtual machine created with vmware server 1.0 with vmware workstation 6.0, which is running debian 4.0r0,
the eth0 won’t start by reporting the following error:
linuxvm1:/etc/network# ifup eth0
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device
eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
Failed to bring up eth0.
The solution:
1. run ifconfig -a
2. in the list, it’ll appear all the NIC that system detected, for example: eth1, eth2, lo
3. change the file: /etc/network/interfaces, change eth0 to eth1
4. ifup eth1
