Fedora 8 not recognizing eth0 after imaging

Since Redhat 9, I've been images of my lab systems to all the other 
machines. I uncheck the bind to mac, and the systems would boot and then 
use there same nic as eth0. But after doing the upgrades to Fedora 8, the 
original machine would have eth0, but all the other machines would come up 
with eth1 and eth0 deactivated. With the latest updates from yesterday, it 
has gotten worse. The machines boot up after an image, but gives a 
message during boot that eth0 not found, but doesn't activate eth1, so the 
machines are all off-line.

The solution that I have found, is use netowk option to delete the inactive 
eth0, and then create a new devices. In hardware it shows eth0 and eth1, 
and selecting eth0 shows messaage that hardware not found, but selecting 
eth1 and then activating it then works fine, This takes only a couple minutes, 
but doing it on 19 other machines is a problem.

Any ideal on why the latest updates don't have it automatically activating the 
nic, and why it is creating eth1 instead of just using the existing nic like it did 
with redhat version 9 thru Fedora core 7. 

I'm the current maintainer of g4l disk imaging sytem, so this effects that as 
well, so would like ot have a solution..

Thanks.
