Strange Kudzu Behavior: Update

["Pyroman[FO]" <pyroman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I now have the ethernet cards to the point where if all the ethernet 
cards are down an /etc/init.d/network start will start them with the 
correct names.  I'm not sure how I did it, I think I deleted all the 
entries in system-config-network's hardware menu, then edited, then 
readded them.

I checked HWADDR in the ifcfg-ethX files and they are correct, as are 
the entries in hwconf now.  However when I boot, it still boots up eth1 
(PCMCIA) as eth0, then tries to boot up eth1 as eth1, which it can't 
rename it because the device is busy.  I haven't been able to replicate 
this outside of a clean boot, every time I boot I have to "ifconfig eth0 
down" (standard ifdown doesn't work because HWADDR is set and the wrong 
card is currently eth0).  Then every time I use ifup, ifdown or 
init.d/networking it works fine.  I also checked modprobe.conf, I can 
remove all kernel modules and do "modprobe eth0" and it loads the right 
driver and the right card is eth0.  Here is the error from my boot.log
