[H-GEN] Small wireless networking problem

Hi List,

I have a Netgear WG511 wireless card (802.11b/g). It uses the
Prism54 driver. I have it working OK (I think) on my Debian testing 
system on a 2.4.27 kernel.

BUT... the infernal thing comes up as 'eth0' or 'eth1' (depending on
the other card of course) and I really want it to be 'wlan0'.   I want 
totally different configs for the two interfaces and having the wireless 
as wlan0 will help keep my feeble mind in place.

Can I control this?  If so, HOW?

Gaz
