Strike that, I see that you are also showing the HWADDR on the same
line, so the whole regex this is going to miss your output.
Skip the script; The main thing is to take the 'em1 ... HWadd:
aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff' and put it in 70-persistent-net.rules as (one line);
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*",
ATTR{address}=="aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff", NAME="eth0"
Then in you 'ifcfg-eth0' file, set 'DEVICE="eth0"' and make sure there
is no HWADDR="..." line. Reboot and you should be golden.
