    hello. Using Parallels Desktop7 (Build 7.0.15055, Revision 740667; March 5, 2012),
    and created a Fedora 15 vm, using the "Download Fedora Free" built-in wizard
    instead of manually grabbing an .iso, etc. (this is *more* supported, right? :)

    everything works, except some code which is expecting "eth0", while i have:

    nharkins@fedora:~$ ifconfig -a
    eth2 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1C:42:6C:B1:B9
    inet addr:10.211.55.3 Bcast:10.211.55.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
    inet6 addr: fdb2:2c26:f4e4:0:21c:42ff:fe6c:b1b9/64 Scope:Global
    inet6 addr: fe80::21c:42ff:fe6c:b1b9/64 Scope:Link

    nharkins@fedora:~$ ls -l /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth*
    -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 106 Jun 6 2011 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

    nharkins@fedora:~$ cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
    IPV6INIT="yes"
    NM_CONTROLLED="yes"
    HWADDR="00:1C:42:A9:5D:63"
    BOOTPROTO="dhcp"
    DEVICE="eth0"
    ONBOOT="yes"

    why do i only have eth2? especially when there is config for "eth0"?
