I don't know what is renaming it or where to change that, can you
provide more guidance?

I see first, renaming wmaster0 to eth2, but I never see a wmaster0
interface, then when DHCP tries to run in the boot sequence, it
first seems to try eth2, then says "eth2: unknown hardware address
type 801" and proceeds to try sending DHCP on eth1, which is not
even plugged in.  Is there another system trying to compete with the
network manager?
