I tried that (biosdevname=0) first, before I saw the new ways. No go.
Well, it's possible, and even likely that you have both. ;)
ie, you are disabling the systemd one, but the biosdevname one kicks in then. In any case, if you have it installed, yum remove biosdevname that will rule it out.
- Check /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg* files... move them to
the names with the mac addresses that you want.

That's why I'm so baffled. Neither the old nor the new methods work.
And that HWADDR is correct for the interface you want to be eth0?
If I boot interactively, what should I be looking for?
I'd look in dmesg first... it should say it's renaming eth0 to em1 or whatever there...
