> I need to change that alias, so that the actual eth0 become eth1 and vice

> Thanks a lot
Modify the "/etc/modprobe.conf" files to reflect the drivers you wish to
use for each interface. Also change the "HWADDR" directive in the
interface configuration files which are located in
"/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts" to match accordingly.
