If that happened then you used the Archboot install media with it's hwdetect consistent device ordering option. Archboot isn't official install media and I suspect that feature will have to be reworked because of the udev changes anyway.
Thanks for the pointer. I was not aware of this behavior. I looked at the wikipage of archboot and I don't think this feature can work reliably: modprobe does not promise to insert the modules in our MODULES array in the order they are listed. To get persistent ordering of devices one should use udev rules (though in most cases this is not needed). Cheers, Tom
