I (re)read those just now, I think I read it before.
I still think this will change my interface name(s) when I swap a defective board for a new one as udev will see new interface(s).
The solution will probably still be the same, kill the 70-persistent-net.rules file and do a reboot / restart.
I have never seen a interface name change without a hardware change. And with udev enabled I have NEVER had the right change and needed to do some delete / edit of the udev 70-* file to get the "proper" interface name for my (firewall) scripts that use interface names.
So I don’t understand what the improvement is, there will probably be some in specific cases, just not in my case I think. Instead of rewriting all my scripts I will probably edit the 70-* udev file to create my familiar ethX names.
