udev is an upstream update with mostly bugfixes, but some changes in behaviour. Most importantly, NAME= rules are being ignored now, you can not change the kernel's predefined device name anymore.
Is there a hope to get "NAME= rules" back in the future or is there a nice upgrade path for at example network rules? I can't believe this because i do this for my usb sticks too. Can i replace this KERNEL=="eth*", ATTR{address}=="MAC", NAME="lan", OPTIONS="last_rule" with a Symlink KERNEL=="eth*", ATTR{address}=="MAC", SYMLINK="lan" and would this works in the rc.conf? See you, Attila

Actually, network rules are an exception, they still work. The removal of NAME= only applies to /dev nodes.

Thanks for this information and this sounds better for me as my first understanding of it. See you, Attila
