Force vmxnet loading

If you have a linux instance that does not load the vmxnet driver (and keeps using pcnet32 instead) you must rebuild the initrd including the needed kernel driver. In Debian:

  • Edit /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and add vmxnet
  • Rebuild the initrd, issuing update-initramfs -u
  • Reboot
