e1000 seems OK here. Don't know, sorry.

It's happening to all my ethernet-like devices: the Atheros wireless comes up as a mess too. It's different each time, so it looks like random uninitialized crud.


is this the binary atheros driver? then please try without that..

It happens regardless of whether the atheros driver is loaded (or has ever been loaded). But it also happens to the atheros driver, so it isn't specific to the e1000.


and you're also sure this is not your userspace using interface renaming...
(could be an initscripts bug for name-by-MAC ethernet device naming)
