Jumping in the middle here... not sure if it helps...
We had a problem on some of our servers with the interface numbers
changing around. We added the following type rules to udev to fix the
device names:
KERNEL=="eth?", SYSFS{address}=="00:0e:7f:f0:d2:5b", NAME="eth0" # tg3
KERNEL=="eth?", SYSFS{address}=="00:0e:7f:f0:d2:5a", NAME="eth1" # tg3
