You can create one or a few very simple shellscripts to turn stuff like
eno01y0u5uck02 into eth0, as long as the device isn't moved around,
which ports on a pci card wouldn't be. Another Devuaner and I wrote the
basics of such a script and posted it on this mailing list, several
years ago.

Sorry, but I'm on a tight deadline and can't research
anything more than this memory. Perhaps somebody else knows.
