[GRUB] how to change network card name into eth0

[wieniawski]

I am trying to change the network card name into eth0.
I used the meathod in ubuntu:
1. edit /ect/default/grub, add GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0"
2. update-grub
3. edit /etc/network/interfaces file.

However I can not find /etc/network/interfaces file.

Then how can I do?

Thx.

Why don't you just create one?
But know that some settings in /etc/network/interfaces collide with plasma-nm/NetworkManager.

There are several ways to change the weird device name to something simple, like eth0. In fact, I just did that early this afternoon because I got tired of seeing, and trying to remember that odd name for my wifi. Here's what I did:
I created a file: /etc/udev/rules.d/10-persistent-network.rules
and in it I put:

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net",ATTR{address}=="b4:4b:d6:2d:72:34 ",NAME="wlan0"

It all has to be on one line, so don't split the line for "looks" sake. And, change the address to your card's hex, and "wlan0" to what you want.
Reboot.
