I'm just hitting this one now. The culprit:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/ConsistentNetworkDeviceNaming
http://domsch.com/blog/?p=455
To reverse it:
http://www.arachnoid.com/linux/network_names/index.html

Going forward, it's probably best to "go with the flow". To get it working 
right now, I've just excluded the 'post_install_network_config' snippet and 
doogled the 'network_config' & 'pre_install_network_config' snippets (mine were 
custom already; n/s if the doogling is necessary with the stock scripts).
The whole Cobbler eth-renaming thing isn't necessary anymore with the "new 
way", so RHEL6-stly network snippets can be simplified considerably.

Hi Gonzalo,

Maybe this can help writing your udev rule based on the pci bus numbering:

lspci | grep Eth | awk '{print "KERNEL==\"eth*\", ID==\"0000:"$1"\",
NAME=\"eth"count++"\""}' >> /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

Hi Peter,

Thanks for your reply. Are you suggesting I just append more interfaces to the 
file? Shouldn't I either write it to a new file or overwrite the existing one? 
I'm not sure when /lib/udev/write_net_rules gets triggered and rewrites 
70-persistent-net.rules.
