Mine usually flip in pairs - that is, the pair on the motherboard will
be either eth0/eth1 or eth2/eth3 (etc.) with the same one of the pair
always picked as eth0 or eth2. You might not have much of a problem
with only 2 NICs of the same type. We generally want to run on the
Intel server-class add-in cards instead of the motherboard NICs that
tend to be Broadcoms. It's a habit developed under Windows - I'm not
sure if there is that much difference on Linux, but I have to identify
the NIC one way or another and I'd like to find a reliable way to do it
when swapping in pre-loaded drives.
