I managed to get the Debian 6.0.1 to work with the Microsoft Hyper-V synthetic drivers, thanks to this question. However, if I don't remove the entry for the synthetic ethernet card from /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
on every boot, the VM won't boot the next time as there is a kernel BUG at mm/mmap.c:2129
(Recursive fault) - last sysfs file: /sys/devices/vmbus_0_0/vmbus_0_3/net/eth0/uevent
How do I fix this?
EDIT:
75-persistent-net-generator.rules
looks like this:
# These rules generate rules to keep network interface names unchanged
# across reboots and write them to /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules.

I think try this, based on a Debian forum post
In your file:
You need to add your mac address to the bottom of this section. You probably only need to specify the first 3 so something like this:
