udev ate my network

[Grzegorz Witkowski]

Do you still have the original 70-persistent-net.rules? Instead creating a
new one, I would modify the original one to make sure syntax is correct.
After a reboot check what you have in dmesg and compare to rules from udev
in a file and ifcfg files. Make sure that they are consistent. That should
fix the problem for you.

Regards,
Grzegorz
