Comment 10 for bug 1284043

We are now 2nd of April, and I also think that this bug is not a duplicate of the other one.

I am totally fine not having eth0 and I personnally prefer the new naming convention with p1p2 and the sort.

And if the other bug is fixed, so that eth0 is used as a link to p1p1, then how this will help me if this is all renamed to rename1?

My problem is that on each boot the same network hardware does not end up with the same device name. I don't want (or need) to have a symbolic link from eth0 to p1p1 (or vice versa). I just want that the device named p1p1 is still called the same after the next reboot.

If we cannot have a deterministic device naming for network cards, then how can we configure DHCP or manual IP address for each network interface, or firewall?
