I've used it plenty of times to bind a card to a device with no issues. You do
have it as:
HWADDR=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
Here is an example:
# Intel Corp.|82540EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=static
HWADDR=00:0D:56:98:16:F6
IPADDR=10.104.40.102
NETMASK=255.255.252.0
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet
Works like a charm. Now the one exception is if the bus your card is on is
walked first, before your internal card, then you probably will have issues as
they just don't like to play nice together that way.

I tried that when I had the server up and running (but networking
stopped). When I tried to do an ifup, it simply complained that the
hwaddr of the device didn't match and failed to bring up the interface.
I didn't let it reboot with that line in the config; do you think it
would work then?
