Here you go

# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

Also, while I rebooted there was a problem reported about eth5 (wtf?)
and SIOCSIFNETMASK (I couldn't read it all)
As before, he couldn't find any network devices (according to the
GNOME "thing" on the upper-right corner, the one that resembles a net
cable plug) despite the result of ifconfig. If I delete my devices in
both 'z25_persistent-net.rules' and on '/etc/network/interfaces' I get
it working again. The requested outputs look like these at the moment:
'/etc/network/interfaces':
