But by some working around and using udev/rules file make it to use old card
names as eth0 eth1 eth2 eth3, and it works to it by startup and keep it as eth*
names and in /etc/conf.d/net add the new mac_ethX command so that kernel and
system know and working with use of eth names but it can too come out that
kernel and udev going on to remane the netcards to enp names and that the eth0
is been renamed to like eth0 and enp2s0 to like enp3s6, by using the udev rules
of 70permisit.... and mac_ethX will press udev and kernel to keep the cards in
the order you like them to be for 0 to 3.

By do the new install from fresh is Gentoo gone for kernel in upgrade to not
have 3.16.5 more but is been to 3.17.7 of kernel.

  Take care,
            Gert
