When I was working on this last time (with the r8169 driver), someone on
this list provided the following script which is what fixed the issue at
the time by creating a new 70-persistent-net.rules file with the devices
enumerated in order. However, this no longer works now.
echo [KICKSTART]
Actually, I know what the MAC is for the builtin Port1 and 2. Those are
listed in the BIOS. But ultimately I don't want to rely on them as I want
the same kickstart file to work for other machines, so hardcoding those in
the kickstart file wouldn't quite work, unless I start writing multiple
another identical machine will have the same bus ids. that's why this works.

Right, I understand that part. However I believe I'm now in the realm of
making this specific to this machine as I have no guarantee that another
identical machine will pop up with those same bus IDs. Maybe for the
internal ports, but I don't know if the same will happen for the PCIe bus.

So I'm back to this problem. A quick run down of what the original problem
was:
I have a machine that I'm configuring to use kickstart to setup. It has two
builtin ethernet ports (labeled ports 1 and 2) and I'm adding a third one
on its PCIe bus. Originally I was using an r8169 clone a default
Have you tried having kickstart set up a more appropriate
/etc/udev/rules/70-persistent-net.rules?
This is normally written by /lib/udev/write_net_rules. You should be able
to modify the automatically generated one to match what you need.
