Aaah! Feels so good to be writing this email in kmail again!! So, as you might 
guess, its working now.

The problem apparently was that I used upper case letters in the hex numbers. 
I didn't know those hex numbers are lower case only :s

Oh and I HAD put them on two lines.

Anyway, now I get this message during bootup:

udevd-event[3110]: rename_netif: error changing net interface name eth0_rename 
to eth1: No such device.

It works fine though. But, how do I get rid of that message? Its just annoying 
to look at :/

/me thinks about setting RC_DEVICE_TARBALL="yes"

Anyway, all you people, thanks for your help. Very much appreciated!
