More like a "which NIC is eth1?" problem. I don't know if there's a way
to specify which NIC to use on the kernel line when there's multiple
NICs installed. Perhaps a new parameter, "hwaddr=" or something along
that nature.
That might be the case, however don't the devices come up in
sequence in which they're plugged into the motherboard starting at PCI1
down to however many the board has? I've always had cards come up that
way and it's been consistently that way, at least for me. I can always
count on eth1 being the second card on the bus.
