A good alternative in your scenario above would be to take control of udev rules yourself and rename your NICs based on their MAC address (or on some other tidbit belonging to the card and not to some boot lottery). See, for example [1] (just a random find on the Intertubes, you might have to adapt the rules to the newest fashion, yadda, yadda). After all, systemd is doing just the same, albeit in a somewhat obfuscated way. Cheers [1] http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/udev.htm - t
