By default we don't have 70-persistent_net_rules in the book. Where  
did you find it?

In the past I've seen people apply rules without even seeing what they  
do and always end
having problems finding eth0. Then they finally figure out that it is  
eth1 cause they
whizzed past commands and rules and installed something they didn't  
need in the first place.

Also just checking in /sys/class/net will give the devices rather  
quickly.
