I have a dual-boot Win$/Debian box having two cards, an older one 3Com
(3C905TX in Win$, 3c59x in Deb) and a newer one TP Link (TF-3200 in
Win$, sundance in Deb). Both cards are wired to the other two machines
in the LAN, the older card links to an older box, the newer card links
to a newer box.
The issue is that the 'central' box sees the old NIC as eth0 and the new
NIC as eth1, though I would like it to be the opposite. Besides that, it
seems that the cards get renamed during the system boot, as follows:
renamed network interface eth1 to eth1-eth0
renamed network interface eth0 to eth1
renamed network interface eth1-eth0 to eth0
The only stuff within /etc/network/interfaces is:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
and the working parameters for both cards are set by Network Manager
Applet 0.8.1
I wonder what is the best way to reconfigure the NIC's so the old card
(now eth0) boots as eth1, and the new card (now eth1) boots as eth0?
