But is it connected ;) ? What output does ifconfig give you? What are the
contents of /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1?

Probably a dead symlink. What is the output of
ls -l /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-lo.rpmsave
? Does the file /etc/sysconfig/networking/ifcfg-lo exist? If so make a new
symlink to it:
ln -s ../networking/ifcfg-lo /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-lo
If it doesn't exist create it first with the following content:
DEVICE=lo
IPADDR=127.0.0.1
NETMASK=255.0.0.0
NETWORK=127.0.0.0
# If you're having problems with gated making 127.0.0.0/8 a martian,
# you can change this to something else (255.255.255.255, for example)
BROADCAST=127.255.255.255
ONBOOT=yes
NAME=loopback
and after that create the symlink as mentioned above. Try again and tell us
the result.
Bye,
Leonard.
