[SOLVED]eth1 and eth0 keep switching

Ok I've got two NIC's in this computer, one refuses to get an IP address from DHCP the other work perfectly fine. However each time I start up the one that previously was eth0 is now eth1 and vise versa.

 eth0="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(eth0)

00:0a.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation CK804 Ethernet Controller (rev f3) # WORKS 
05:0c.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8001 Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 13) # BORK

[01:21 AM][desktop:~]# uname -rm
2.6.30-ARCH x86_64
