I could do that, but I'd really rather not fight against the future.  If
network devices are going to be em1, then I'd prefer to use em1.  I can
see how to change the device in a vm to be em1 after it is created, but
not how to force it at virt-install time.  I'm just trying to simplify
the path to transition a vm-installed disk to being a live disk.  Thanks
though.
