The problem is very likely within hal resp. udev (n-m uses the information provided by hal) What does lshal | grep net show?
Ah. It shows that hald is not running. Thanks. I guess that network-manager had an out of date idea.
Using ifrename is not race free and deprecated, I'd strongly suggest you let udev do the renaming: /etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules
Thanks again. I find it hard to keep up, this area seems to be in constant flux. I note that udev has tried to assign the same name to two devices (eth0 to my wireless and firewire interfaces) but that's not network-manager's problem.
