Do you have ifrename installed? If yes, just get rid of it and run /lib/udev/write_net_rules instead; this will generate udev-based persistent naming rules for your network devices; you can modify them by editing the file /etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules. What to edit should be pretty clear; if not, have look at this[0] howto. Regards, Mathias [0] http://www.reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html -- debian/rules
