It's all in "/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules". Removing the
MAC-address-attribute (ATTR{address}) should do the trick (untested):

SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0"

Hmm.. I have (voyage-0.6.2):

# uname -srv                                                     
Linux 2.6.26-486-voyage #1 PREEMPT Wed Jul 1 15:01:20 GMT 2009#

# grep NET_TULIP /boot/config-2.6.26-486-voyage                  
CONFIG_NET_TULIP=y

# modprobe -l | grep tulip                                       
/lib/modules/2.6.26-486-voyage/kernel/drivers/net/tulip/tulip.ko                
/lib/modules/2.6.26-486-voyage/kernel/drivers/net/tulip/de2104x.ko

What version do you use?

(Maybe "modprobe de2104x" is more approriate for your network card.)
