From what I understand uses eudev the same files as systemd with udev. If so you should do
ln -s /dev/null /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-name-slot.rules to make sure (e)udev does not mess with the network devices. (/etc/udev seems to have priority above /lib/udev) After that it is somewhat unclear to me. Or /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules should work again. Or you should add a 70-net-name-slot.rules with the syntax of 80-net-name-slot.rules like SUBSYSTEM!="net", GOTO="net_setup_link_end" IMPORT{builtin}="path_id" ACTION!="add", GOTO="net_setup_link_end" IMPORT{builtin}="net_setup_link" NAME=="eth0", ENV{ID_NET_NAME_ONBOARD}!="", NAME="$env{ID_NET_NAME_ONBOARD}" NAME=="eth0", ENV{ID_NET_NAME_SLOT}!="", NAME="$env{ID_NET_NAME_SLOT}" NAME=="eth0", ENV{ID_NET_NAME_PATH}!="", NAME="$env{ID_NET_NAME_PATH}" LABEL="net_setup_link_end" After adding net.ifnames=0 and biosdevname=0 your system should work as intended but I do not have the time to test it, hopes it helps in the right direction.
