For the (strange) record - and on F13.

I changed "/etc/udev/rules.d/70...net..." to associate my single NIC's
MAC address to eth1 (instead of eth0, of course). I rebooted without
changing ifcfg-eth0's name or contents; and my network was up and
running. And "ifconfig" returned eth1. So NM must be ignoring
ifcfg-eth0 or eth1 is using ifcfg-eth0 based on the HWADDR value in
that file. Any other ideas?
