I plead ignorance - you reached the limits of my knowledge on the
topic :) Matt Domsch might be able to help, when he comes by. Oh, if you
upgrade from earlier Fedora releases, I believe it preserves your
previous interface names by default: you have to wipe out a few config
files to make it use the new ones, starting with the /etc/udev/rules.d
file that specifies interface names.
