I have the same problem on an ubuntu 8.04 LTS 64 Bit Linux, kernel version: 2.6.24-21-generic. The PC has two NIC interfaces, one onboard and another one as PCI-E Card. Sometimes the onboard NIC becomes eth0 and the PCI-E NIC eth1 and sometimes round versa. Resetting and configuring the network by hand after booting is not possible because the machine is a diskless Client which mounts its root filesystem over NFS. On a network reset the root filesystem will get lost. So how can I set fixed device names for the NIC interfaces in a very early stage of booting?
