Accordingly you could change the name in the automatically generated file
/etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules
back to eth1.

Its there already:

# PCI device 8086:4220 (ipw2200)
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", SYSFS{address}=="00:12:f0:2e:4c:14",
NAME="eth1"

This suggests that the system can't find the device with the new kernel?
