ok, so the exactly opposite i learned to do after a automated migration
from OSX to Fedora on top of vmware failed because i needed to restore
a backup and brave changed the name in the udev-rule and forgot about
the existence of the MAC in the prepared ifcfg-eth0 which was assumed
to switch to the production IP after migration of all data and from
this moment on removed any HWADDR reference form ifcfg-files

looks like F17 supports this also and i can start to prepare any
machine for which i am responsible

[root at arrakis:~]$ rpm -qf /lib/udev/rename_device
initscripts-9.37.2-1.fc17.x86_64
