When I restore a ghost image on another PC, MAC address defined in ifcfg-eth0 does not match with the MAC address of the new PC and hence eth0 does not start.
Thats the problem area.
So, logically, there are two ways to do this, either exclude the MAC address before taking the ghost image or change/delete it after restoring. On fedora this is set in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth*
In any case, like jtd suggested, I too would recommend looking up High availability for linux.
Thx

manage MAC address conflict.
mac addresses are unique. You will never have a conflict - unless you are building ethernet cards with same mac addresses.
