ifconfig shows me the MAC address even when an ethernet connection is
not up and an /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX is not present.
Perhaps we don't mean the same things by "unconfigured".

You can look in /etc/hwconf for your three network cards. If kudzu has
detected all of them, they should each have entries like:
network.hwaddr: 00:0f:b0:6e:33:33

Using ifconfig to determine the MAC addresses for the other two cards
you should be able to figure out which one is eth1.
