openSUSE used to do that, and dropped it (in fact, the NIC naming scheme seemed to change every release for a while in openSUSE). Personally, I thought the udev generated persistent-net file was the best solution. If I wanted a more "human readable" name, I could always edit the file, but at least the name never changed once it made it into the rules. We've already seen names change once with updates to the new software, and I'm sure they will change again. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
