"experienced sysadmins" should not have a problem to open
"/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules" and define
"eth0"

SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", 
ATTR{address}=="3c:d9:2b:65:95:9f", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0",
ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0"

nothing has changed here

if you replaced a network card in the past you also had to edit
"70-persistent-net.rules" because it became "eth1"

"yum remove biosdevname" and act like all the years before
i have in summary around 30 F16 setups with 20 of them as
production sevrers and there is no machine not having "eth0"
