order of eth interfaces in SuSE 9.1

how could I manually control the numbering of ethernet interfaces in 
SuSE 9.1?

It's not like COL 3.1. There is no ifcfg-eth0 and ifcfg-eth1, but 
ifcfg-eth-id-xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx where the xx:s are the mac address.
Automatic detection is good, but it may affect my iptables script if the 
network interfaces were not fixed.
