load order of network interfaces
hello,
I have 2 alpha machines identical.
they have 2 net interfaces on board (Digital DS21143 Tulip loaded by
module tulip0 and tulip1) and 1 net interface on a pci slot (RealTek
RTL8139 loaded by module 8139too).
The strange thing is that on a machine eth0 is on tulip0, eth1 is on
tulip1 and 8139too is on eth2, on the other machine 8139too is on eth0,
eth1 and eth2 are on tulip.
I would like that the two machines map eth on the same way.
I tried to add a file called my-aliases in /etc/modeprobe.d with this
content:
alias eth0 tulip0
alias eth1 tulip1
alias eth2 8139too
but on the second machine it seems to be ignored and the interfaces load
in another order.
does anyone know the right debian way to map interfaces in a certain order?
bye,
Ivan
