Hi Patrick,

I haven't experienced this exact problem although if you want to specify
which logical interface name is assigned to which physical card you can
configure the MAC to which it is assigned. The directory to do this is
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/

Example:

In the file ifcfg-eth0 if the contents reads;

DEVICE=eth0
HWADDR=00:11:22:33:44:55

The physical interface with this MAC will be assigned the logical name eth0.
You can do this for each interface in the directory.

Reboot and test.
