Ethernet adapters logically reversed

Hi there,

I have a fedora 5 system with the latest updates.  This machine has three
network adapters, each of which uses a different hardware driver.  

$ cat /etc/modprobe.conf

alias usb-controller uhci-hcd
alias eth0 3c59x
alias eth1 e100
alias eth2 8139too

$ lspci

02:0b.0 Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c900B-TPO Etherlink XL
[Cyclone] (rev 04)

When I first boot, the eth0 and eth2 interfaces are logically attached to
the wrong controllers.  In /var/log/dmesg, the Realtek controller is loaded
first, and attaches to eth0 and the 3Com controller loads last and attaches
to eth2.  If I stop the network service, remove the 3c59x and 8139too
modules and restart the network, things get configured correctly.  Is there
a way to get things to work right when first booted?
