Hi all,

I work with BLFS, Kernel-3.8.5, KDE-4.10.2.
As my motherboard went defect, I had to exchange it by a new ASRock G31M. So 
far, everything is working OK. However, I would appreciate, if someone can 
give me some explanations on what is running:

I have an Realtek 8169. In /etc/sysconfig there is an ifconfig.eth0 like 
explained in the BLFS Book:

ONBOOT=yes
IFACE=eth0
SERVICE=ipv4-static
IP=192.168.178.227
GATEWAY=192.168.178.1
PREFIX=24
BROADCAST=192.168.178.255

Well, the points are: 

1:) My system is renaming the interface during booting: ( dmesg )
[    4.410110] systemd-udevd[1661]: renamed network interface eth0 to enp1s0

2.) I do not find any renaming action in udev 70-persistent-net.rules

3.) Inspite of wrong ifconfig.eth0, renaming etc., my PC is doing well and I 
can work on internet.

Questions:

1:) what is hapening ? Is enp1s0 a sort of new Interface-standard ?
Should I rewrite ifconfig.eth0 to a kind of ifconfig.enp1s0 ? 

As I said, my PC is doing communication, but I do not know why ;-)  Perhaps 
somebody can give me a hint and explain. I did not find any help googling.

Thanks in advance,
Edgar
