Alberto,

I had a problem when I first installed FC2 with ethernet cards being
given a different device name from FC1. I have two network cards and
eth0 became eth1 and vice versa. I realise that you may only have one
card but it is worth checking that the device name has not changed
somewhere. Check redhat->system tools-> network device control.
