Package: ifrename
Version: 27+28pre13-1

i think /etc/init.d/ifrename should use the -t option... which allows 
devices to take over already assigned device names... i just had an 
unstable box which was working ok with an /etc/iftab that explicitly 
specified eth0/eth1 mac addresses.

then i upgraded from hotplug -> udev and from 2.6.13 to 2.6.15 kernels... 
and the eth0/1 order swapped and ifrename refused to reassign eth0/1 and 
the system failed to boot properly.

but ifrename -t fixes the problem...
