any tool to help configure bonding?

[Thomas Fess]

Yep, sorry for that.  It's the ifcfg-eth0 I wrote out, with the script.  Long story short you need to add you mac address back into the eth# (eth0-eth1) files.  So either user ifconfig to get the mac and add it or I wrote the old eth-files out as "orig" I think.

But adding the mac should fix that.
