So I would like to propose another solution for this, allow specifying
both an interface-name and a mac with ip=, and then have the dracut
generated rules do the rename and init. This way problems 3) and 4)
above are solved, and we can easily also write the mac address to
grub.conf from anaconda when generating the ip= cmdline.

yes, sane solution .. +1
Yes, +1 as well. I'd vote for not doing this inside the ip= parameter,
but use something like ifname=iface:mac.


Hmm, I'm not so sure about that, it sure would be easier for the genrules
script to have all the info in one place, instead of having to piece
bits together.

Regards,

Hans
