Ubuntu ServerReplacing your NIC in ubuntu server means editing the intefaces file and removing the persistent-net.rules file The interfaces fileYour existing card may be using an unintiative alias. Change the interfaces file to something more generic, like eth0
sudo vim /etc/network/interfaces
# The primary network interface
The persistent-net rules fileThis file makes sure that the card with mac X always comes up as the same ethX alias. Remove this file so that the new card takes the place of the old one. It _should_ replace it with one that specifies eth0 as the alias. Check it if something doesn't work.
rm /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
