Do you have issue with USB wifi when developing your distro?

[kevinsmia1939]

Hello,
I have been developing my own distro from KIWI based on openSUSE TW.
I problem is that my USB wifi receiver would not see any wifi at boot. It will see wifi only if I unplug and plug it back in.
There are some suggestion about udev, but I install udev package but still same problem.

Have you encounter similar issue?
Thanks

I do have a post in openSUSE forum here:

I found the culprit, it was 70-persistent-net.rules inside /kiwi-descriptions/root/etc/udev/rules.d/ which come with KIWI live image template.

I delete the 70-persistent-net.rules and it work again.

The content of the 70-persistent-net.rules is this, not sure how it broke my USB wifi dongle.

Linux Kamarada has that file too:

I'm going to investigate... thank you!
