USBNET Udev Rule

If you use usbnet often to ssh into your Pre you probably are sick of assigning it an IP address every time you plug it in. By using a simple udev rule you can assign a static IP address as soon as it is plugged in.

Create a file in /etc/udev/rules.d (ex. 01-palmpre.rules) and put the following line in it. You can set the IP address to what ever you want or even call dhcpcd instead of ifconfig.
