It is a misfeature (i.e. a deliberate bug) in the log daemon. Starting 
sometime in the 2.3 kernel series, the PIIX IDE code mistakenly used

printk("... not 100% native mode ...");

which would then correctly log as "not 100 ative mode". It took a while 
before the printk() string was corrected to "100%% native" and unfortunately, 
the log daemon changed before the IDE code was fixed.

eth%d is the result from not calling init_etherdev() or so.
