Could the kernel be recongizing the network cards in opposite order?? In
other words, the card that was eth0 is now eth1 and visa versa. If this is
the case, the output of ifconfig will look the same but your network will
not work untill you flip the cables. Try fliping the cables and if it
works than that's what happened.
