Re: [U-Boot] [PATCH 5/5] net: sandbox-raw: Allow interface to be specified by index

With systemd stable interface names, eth0 will almost never exist. Instead of using that name in the sandbox.dts, use index 2 (the first interface after "lo"). Enumerate the interfaces on the system to choose a valid interace name.

This seems brittle too. A name seems better to me. I might be missing something though. Can we ask the OS for a name, etc?
