Could be several things.
1) Is the driver for eth0 nic loaded?
2) Faulty nic
3) That bridge "virbr0" - what nic's are assigned to it?
You could try removing/renaming /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and reboot. A new file will be created, sometimes that fixes this kind of problems.
You could also add a file "/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1", can you bring up eth1 then?
Eth0 should have "00:21:70:99:4d:74" as macaddres. I can see eth0 when I installed RHEL 5.4, but I can't find eth0 when I install RHEL 6.4.
I tried to remove /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and reboot, but doesnt work.
Where can I find driver for Nvidia Quadro FX3600 for RHEL 6.4? And how to install it?
the FULL install instructions ARE in it for installing the nvidia.run driver on RHEL 6.5
first install the development tools and kernel source
then you need to blacklist the "Nouveau" driver and rebuild the boot image
only then can you install the .run driver
using the nvidia repo and installing the "kmod-nvidia.rpm" is MUCH EASIER
