[K12OSN] Swap eth0 and eth1

[gKw-X]

Well, I tried a couple of the things previously mentioned again, and it 
SEEMS to be working alright. I hooked my test pc up to the 1000 nic and 
booted it and it got to the login screen properly. So now if I can make 
the internet work with the other nic, I guess I'm home-free! I'm not 
100% satisfied, because of the discrepancies with ifconfig, but if it 
works it works :)

Thank you!
Matt
