RE: 2.6 kernel network interface assignment order
Option 1:
Use modules instead of kernel built in drivers. You can setup aliases,
something like
alias eth0 8139too
alias eth1 via-rhine
in /etc/modutils/aliases
Option 2:
Make a script that configure each interface using it MAC address, something
like
auto eth0 eth1
mapping eth0 eth1
script /path/to/get-mac-addr.sh
map 00:48:54:65:AA:AA internal
map 00:48:54:65:BB:BB external
iface internal inet static
address 192.168.0.
netmask 255.255.255.0
pre-up /path/to/internal-firewall.sh $IFACE
iface internet inet dhcp
pre-up /path/to/internet-firewall.sh $IFACE
in /etc/network/interfaces
