I don't believe this is a feature you have any control over. I think it
is determined by the physical location of the cards and the way the BIOS
reports the hardware...

I am curious, as I have googled this to death, how to force a system to
have the motherboard card be eth0 and eth1. My configuration is as
follows, a Dell PowerEdge 1850 with an add-on Intel Pro 1000 Quad Port
card. The quad port card gets found first and becomes eth0 through eth3
and the motherboard cards end up as eth4 and eth5. This has caused some
problems during kickstarts and the like. I am sure there is something I
can pass via grub to the initrd to get this to go to the motherboard
first but I just can't seem to decipher it. The weird thing is that on
a RHEL4 box it seems to behave the opposite, or to be more specific the
way I want it to.
Thanks for any help.
