but hopefully /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules will be recognized forever if it exists because there are many servers especially virtual ones where you hardly need to control ethernet device names to avoid breaking iptables-scripts as example keep in mind there are MANY setups which do not need nor want biosdevname and are bootet with biosdevname=0 on the kernel line P.S.: i HATE it to need "ifconfig -a" and hack "70-persistent-net.rules" by hand instead as all the years open it and change back the last line to "eth0" after probe-restore of a virtual machine to temporary access a datarecovery backup from some weeks ago
