But is possible in install time disable biosdevname and use old good
ethX scheme? It is more human understandable, and almost always is
unacceptable when I replace NIC or move it to other slot to that get
new network device. Simply, in many cases is MAC-based NIC naming
better.
F18 installer can solve this?

No installer will not fix this.

How network interface get their device names is that first the Kernel assigns one then userspace will rename it when udev sees it.

However ( hopefully ) this will be permanently fixed in F19 and onwards via [1]. ( the changes are already in rawhide and yes this will fix the annoying ks/cobbler ethX bug everyone is familiar with )
