as you can see ethernetcards are pci-devices 8-11
It would be nice to be able to say..
alias eth0 tulip
alias eth1 tulip
alias eth2 tulip
alias eth3 tulip
options eth0 device 8
options eth1 device 9
options eth2 device 11
options eth3 device 10
so that eth0-eth3 would be dependent of physical slot instead of io or irq
or some mysterious probing order.
cheers..
