Exactly, the boot process goes so: 1) udev loads forcedeth.ko and it gets eth0 2) udev also loads airo.ko 3) forcedeth loads very fast and udev renames it to eth1 according to /etc/iftab 4) airo slowly init the card and try to get eth1 as name, but found it busy and die() Personally I solved this by deleting forcedeth.ko. I know that it's ugly, but I don't use wired etherned and i hate do "rmmod airo ; modprobe airo" at every boot, also in a shell script.
What does /etc/udev/rules.d/30-net_persistent_names.rules say about the name for the MAC address of the wired interface? On my system, the wired one is forced to be eth0 and the wireless to be eth1.
