You could perhaps try passing ethernet info to the kernel during
boot, something like:

LILO: linux ether=IRQ,ADDR,eth0

Fill in the appropriate IRQ and ADDR for the card you want to be eth0, 
and if it works stick it in /etc/lilo.conf as append=" ether=x,x,eth0".
(N.B. this works on a 2.2.x kernel, not sure about 2.4.x).

You'd find it a lot easier if they were both modules though - just load
the e1000 module first.
