Yes, and I considered it, but I do not want my networks named like that. I've
been using ethX in my application and products for more than a decade, and do
not want to change the naming scheme if at all possible.
with 4 NIC's this was never predictable and mostly luck
the only stupid thing is that this this new crap names also appear
if there is only one NIC or at least only identical ones with
the same driver what makes race-conditions unlikely
I understand why the names come up jumbled on bootup, but there is no excuse
for udev not being able to properly rename them as requested.
Thanks,
Ben
