On the other side: at my last job, we had a number of servers with multiple
network cards, with a mix of Broadcom and Intel. It was very frustrating to
get systems configured consistently, because it was hard to match the wiring
to the system config -- and often mostly-identical machines came up
differently due to whatever slight variations. We backported biosdevname
from Fedora into CentOS and solved our problem.
