[TriLUG] eth0 to enp3s0f2

[Stephen P. Schaefer via TriLUG]

Yup: I un-cpio'd initrd.img and found my way to lib/udev/rules.d/71-biosdevname.rules where I found a comment describing the kernel command line option "biosdevname=0".  That will take care of my circumstances for a good while now.  I'm not dealing with a gentoo distribution, so net.ifnames=0 is inapplicable.
