Description James Laska 2011-05-25 19:24:13 UTC
Description of problem:

In section 2.3.1 of the Fedora 15 release notes, the biosdevname desfor F15 note a device naming format for PCI cards as ..

  "will be named pci<slot_number>p<port_number>"

This is incorrect and should be changed to:

  "will be named p<slot_number>p<port_number>"

This was a late (unclear on the date) biosdevname change, perhaps the release notes beat wasn't updated to reflect the change.
