In that thread you indicated that you had previously used orinoco,
which would have given you an ethX name for that same MAC address.
So somewhere that association has stuck. Perhaps you are using an
HWADDR line in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1?
This seems to be the trick. I have both ifcfg-wlan0 and ifcfg-eth1 with
same HWADDR.
I played with both persistant-net.rules and ifcfg-* but probably never
got the right combinatin. I hope it will now really persist during
reboots, because that was somehow not that persistent - when I removed
persisten-net.rules but had correct ifcfg-wlan0 on next reboot the device
was again eth1 and persistent-net-generator created again the rule with
eth1 rename and the interface was not configured. This time I left
persistent-net.rules where I changed eth1 to wlan0 and removed
ifcfg-eth1.
Thanks for the answers.
