Replying from my other email address here due to firewall issues--

I'm not stopping you from using ethX interface names.

By default our livecds start a dhcpcd instance to autoconfigure any
interface with a link detected, my change won't affect that behavior.
If dhcpcd autoconfig is not suitable, our docs point you to net-setup
for manual configuration, my change won't affect that behavior either.

If you decide to go a 3rd route and use netifrc, you will need to
manually create the net.ethX link(s).  Users with
default/"predictable" interface names already would have to do this.

Are you sure you're actually affected by my change?

Thanks,
Ben
