Thanks, I see the alias name, but sys-devices-pci...-net-em1.device's
alias is sys-subsystem-net-devices-eth0.device.

I think your change at

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/commit/?id=e03695957fc37406ded60fd0c6a42cab1b96f10f

will fix this.

I'll retry with the right alias name or the fixed udev rule.
