After a very smooth install of FC5t2, using the i386 DVD iso image over
NFS, on my tablet PC I noticed that my wireless LAN card (mini-PCI Intel
ipw 2200) was automatically configured as dev19623 instead of a more
logical and useful eth1 (eth0 is my onboard ethernet).

Is this a new feature of t2? system-config-network shows my wireless
network card twice:

Description: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG
Type: Wireless
Device: dev19623

Description: ipw2200
Type: Ethernet
Device: eth1

For the rest no complaints, very nice.
