and you did read what i said?

*consider rename them to lan0, lan1, lan2, lan3 to avoid the race-condition kernel-naming / renaming *

with 4 NIC's this was never predictable and mostly luck
the only stupid thing is that this this new crap names also appear
if there is only one NIC or at least only identical ones with
the same driver what makes race-conditions unlikely
