10 No, not if that name is already in use, the message "udev: renamed
11 eth0 to eth1" is the consequence.

13 Udev renames the device, so every config file referring to eth0 showed
14 up errors. If you now delete the file that fixes net names the card
15 will take first slot and be named eth0.

17 You'll have to take back that runlevel link.
