Assigning wifi to eth0 or eth1

I've moved from opensuse to arch and couldn't be happier.
However, I can't seem to set my ipw3945 to eth1 or eth0 permanently.
Since I have both e1000 and ipw3945 to load at boot, (in rc.conf) it randomly assigns wifi to eth0 or eth1.
Using iwl3945 seems to solve this problem (as it used wlan0) but iwl3945 refuses to work.
Right now, I've removed e1000 from rc.conf to have eth0 only.
How can I fix this? Thanks in advance.

Re: Assigning wifi to eth0 or eth1

I believe adding this to your modprobe.conf would take care of it:

alias eth0 e1000
alias eth1 ipw3945

Install netcfg, and look at /etc/iftab. Configure that however you want, and then add net-rename to DAEMONS=()
