I worked a bit on this.  I no longer have the MAC or HW addrs in 
ifcfg-eth0.  Only in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules, and only 
for name=eth0:

# net device ()
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", 
ATTR{address}=="02:67:15:00:01:79", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", 
NAME="eth0"

but on reboot, I get the error:


Bringing up interface eth0:  Device eth0 does not seem to be present, 
delaying initialization.
[FAILED]

and the ethernet comes up as eth1 and the eth1 line is added to 
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

Almost as if there is something else that needs changing.
