Please explicate - offlist is fine. I really dislike the naming convention.... I was installing on a new HP dl560 g8, and it came up with ensf1 (which is*great* fun if you're trying to do a pxeboot build....)
The CentOS FAQ explains how to restore the traditional naming scheme:

That being said, everything works fine now with the new interface names. I guess I'll just have to get used to it. Feels a bit like FreeBSD. :oD
No, FreeBSD names make sense, giving you an idea of what driver is being used.
I've also never found FreeBSD nics to change after installation. That is, if the card was bge0, it stayed bge0 after reboots.
Granted, if you move the drive to a machine with a different brand of NIC, you'll have to edit /etc/rc.conf to reflect the new name.
