Hi Frank,

OK, in that case you could create your own rule to bypass the net-generator.
Put something like this in 69-bypass-persistent-net.rules:
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", NAME="%k"
I tried this, with and without removing the 70-persistent-net.rules,
but still my test host comes up with eth_s2_0 and eth_s2_1, so the
kernel must tell udev those names.
But in /var/log/boot.msg I find this (quoting only about eth0 here):
<6>e1000: eth0: e1000_probe: Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Connection
...
<6>eth0 renamed to eth_s2_0 by udevd [274]
<6>udev: renamed network interface eth0 to eth_s2_0
So udev must have some other rule telling it to rename those devices.
After I have removed 70-persistent-net.rules (and it is not re-created
when rebooting) I don't know where this could come from :-(
Do you have any idea?
Could be something from the SLES initramfs?
I don't have/use SLES so I really don't know where the rename to
eth_s2_* comes from, sorry.
