Title:
  Do not create persistent name rules for eucalyptus interfaces

Status in “udev” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: udev

  udev creates persistent rules in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-
  net.rules for eucalyptus network interfaces.

  In a UEC cloud, you can try a few methods to create persistent EBS
  based system images, when these work you can boot instances that are
  persistent. If the eucalyptus MAC's are not ignored, your instance
  will start with the network on eth1 and be inaccessible.

  Eucalyptus uses the MAC prefix: d0:0d

  This problem is much like:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udev/+bug/341006 where
  vmware/qemu/kvm interfaces needed to be ignored otherwise problems are
  created whilst cloning images.
