I missed the original thread detailing how you munched your NM config..ill
need to go back and read it.  But quick answer for now on how you can work
around this until i understand how you screwed up your NM config:

system-config-network can be used in F9 if needed to configure devices using
the legacy sysconfig network scripts. iit has a new setting to turn NM
control of the device on or off per device. This gui toggle sets a new
variable in the legacy networking scripts which get written down below
/etc/sysconfig.  The legacy network service..appropriately named 'network'
must be turned on...for these configs to be parsed...the legacy service its
off by default.  If you have set the configs correct NM will ignore those
devices and let the legacy service handle them.
