Setting that parameter should work, but it doesn't take precedence over an existing /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules Since net.ifnames=1 is the default since stretch, you don't need to set it explicitly though. > Removing any /etc/udev/rules.d/ file handling the network interface doesn’t > bring the desired effect of having predictable network interface names. > > I started now to compare /lib/udev/rules.d from a clean stretch installation > with the files on a upgraded system, the clean installation has much more > files. > So next try reinstalling udev to get all missing/new rule files from stretch, > but that didn’t work either. > > Any ideas what I could try next or missed to check? > Most likely the file /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules got embedded in the initramfs. So once you removed that file, you also need to rebuild the initramfs via update-initramfs -u Michael
