Delete the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and let it entirely
create a new one by using redhat-config-network. If you are experienced
enough you of course could edit that plain text file by hand too. Then
please keep care to have the MAC address (HHWADDR) of the new card in
the config file, else the new card would not work properly.
