renamed network interface eth0 to eth1

Miraculously, after my old server motherboard died, Ubuntu booted right up on the new board. The only problem I've run into so far is that since the new board's network interface had a different MAC address from my old eth0, udev decided to call it eth1.
Dec 11 00:54:16 hierax kernel: [   15.251176] udev: renamed network interface eth0 to eth1
I first noticed this when the system didn't get the static ip I had configured in /etc/network/interfaces.
