I have internal Ethernet and CardBus 802.11b interfaces that 2.4 kernels
know as eth0 and eth1. The 2.6 kernels I've tried refer to them as eth1
and eth2.

Dumb question: Do 2.6 kernels start all sequential device numbering with
"1" rather than "0"? Gadzooks! What partition would that make /dev/hda1 ??
