There are around 3 method to do so (learned while googling for the
problem, maybe somewhere metioned them on this list too, not sure). I
chose an easier one. I just mention the modules of the two NICs in
/etc/modules in the order I want the cards to be numbered. So module for
eth0 goes first and for eth1 goes next. The only problem is that this
method will not work if a NIC card is replaced with another one which
may need a different module.
