I upgraded one of my router from F9 to rawhide (F10). Well I got a message stating that Mac address were wrong, I made a autodetect, then eth0 became eth1 and eth1 eth0 (i.e. eth0 was the internal network card and became the Internet card, the reverse for eth0) Of course I had to change eth0 in eth1 and viceversa also in iptables!!!
What is the component to blame???

Not sure; however, a quick solution will be to use system-config-network and override the device name (under the Hardware tab).
