I had similar problems with udev rules when adding a 2nd NIC and
needed to override the assignments which switched the original eth0 to
eth1.
For some reason, despite all the info that says the over-ride filename
should be alphanumerically "smaller", it only works if the file is
alphanumerically "larger". Which kind of make sense to me since a
later rule should override an earlier one.
So instead of 49-, try 51- instead :D
