ifcfg-eth0:temp.sav is deleted, and you've seen that the other ifcfg
files are properly set up.  The batch of files finally completed and I
rebooted, full of hope :-)  eth0 now has the correct address so I
happily set off the next huge batch of copying.  I forgot to look at
what eth1 was doing.  Despite the config file saying that it shouldn't
start at boot, it did start.  I should have taken it out of NM
control.  I forgot that the scripts are ignored if NM is in control.

So - I'm still working on wireless.  I'm not going to stop the batch.
 It's lateish now so I'll leave it running all night if necessary.  At
least I'm almost there :-)
