Don't know if it applies, but I always start systems (and livecds) without the (un)predictablenetworknames brokenness. So that it is always ethx and nothing else.

I don't think these are providing any value to anyone, since interfaces
don't get eth* names by default and very few livecd users will be using
netifrc anyway.
