Apu available you can start in any order. The acostumed order is #2 then #1.

When you have to start with external air source, supp procedure states the order #1 then engine 2, this is due to the ducting of the external air source.

To be exact it is to prevent the external air source + engineer sucked into nr. 2 engine. I theory nr. 2 engine could be started first from the external air sorce. ;)
