One thing I forgot to mention (if it could influence device ordering):
eth0 and eth1 are bond to one device (bond0) for load sharing...
 
and server runs RHEL5

        Subject: [rhelv5-list] Safe way to have fixed ordering of 
network-devicesafter kernel update
        
        
        Hi all!
         
        I have a server with 2 onboard network-devices (tg3) and one additional 
network card (e100).
        Everytime there is a kernel update the order of these devices gets 
corrupt. So I tried to add
        the following "rules-file" to /etc/udev/rules.d:
         
        [r...@atvies00qx rules.d]# cat 50-net-persistent.rules
        KERNEL=="eth?", SYSFS{address}=="00:30:05:aa:df:fb", NAME="eth0"   # 
MAC of first on-board interface in lowercase
        KERNEL=="eth?", SYSFS{address}=="00:30:05:9d:27:8d", NAME="eth1"   # 
MAC of second on-board interface in lowercase
        KERNEL=="eth?", SYSFS{address}=="00:02:b3:b3:a8:9a", NAME="eth2"   # 
MAC of additional interface in lowercase
        
        I works for reboots as long as there is no new kernel. When updating 
the kernel, again the
        order gets corrupted...
         
        Any idea what I'm doing wrong?   Or do you know a better (i.e. safe) 
way to do this?
         
        Thanks a lot,
        Christian
         
        Btw... I've also a similar problem with a autochanger-device on a 
CentOS-system (sometimes device is
                 /dev/sg3, sometimes it's sg7.....)
