I had a similar problem when the system started using /etc/iftab to
name network interfaces. I'm not sure what the easiest way to fix it
is, but I used "ifconfig -a" to get the hardware addresses and edited
/etc/iftab to give them permanent names, like this:
# This file assigns persistent names to network interfaces. See iftab(5).
