I did grok that much. I had a 70-persistent-net.rules file that named
my three interfaces "eth0" "eth1" and "eth2" based on their MAC
addresses. After reading the news item and flameeyes blog, I was still
pretty much at a loss regarding what I was actually supposed to _do_.
In Flameyes blog, he showed an example of using udev rules pretty much
identical to the ones I already had, so I couldn't figure out what was
different (other than the default interface names, which still aren't
really predictable).
In the end, I just did the upgrade and rebooted. My existing rules
seemed to work fine: the interfaces came up with the same names as
before. So I gave up trying to figure it out...
