I don't recall exactly why, but I do seem to recall it has something
to do with different card MAC addressesgetting different interface
names. As for how to stop it, I think that getting rid of
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
, and restarting udev, or just rebooting should do it, but I do stand
to be corrected on that, and am not 100% sure that that's the best
way.
