I leave it on now because there are few problems that I encounter with
Fedora. I am too lazy to turn it off.

Some people put a lot of effort in the artwork and I'd say it looks good.  I'll turn it off when I need to but it's nice to have otherwise.

Since his problem the original poster describes the activity of the rhgb
stopping or pausing, details might be needed. Choosing the append option
in grub and removing rhgb quiet might help further diagnose the problem.

I've already taken those steps for this situation.  Like I said, the term "Bringing up interface eth0" is from the text boot.

Maybe just binding the NIC to its MAC address is all that is needed so
the identity of the interface is known to the programs with less room
for errors by misidentification of hardware.

I'm not exactly sure what this is/does, but in system-config-network, I double click on the eth0 device, go to the "Hardware Device" tab, and "bind to MAC address" is already checked.  Is this what you mean?  Sorry, some of my command-line expertise is lacking--particularly in the network domain.
