Hello there,

there should be no eth$X device in /dev

wirless cards don't normally come up as eth0/eth1/eth2 etc etc, some of 
them have names like ath0. check the udev rules for your device name, 
and change the device your configuring in /etc/sysconfig to match the 
correct device.

If it's wirless make sure you have wirless tools installed and make sure 
you setup the interface correctly.
