Bonding going haywire.

Hi Guys
For some reason my Bonded Nics is giving me hassles like you can not believe.

Symptoms:
1. eth0 works, eth1 getting renamed to eth1-eth0.
2. deleting 70-persistent-net.rules allows me to do a "omv-firstaid" on reboot gives eth0 and eth1 but on the same NIC ADDRESS!

Configs:
1. lshw -C Network See the NIC ADDRESSES!

Rebooting the machine then, puts eth1 in a DISABLED STATE (running lshw -C Network) and renames eth1 to eth1-eth0 (doing an ifconfig -a)

Question:
How can I delete the network completely and redefine it? (Delete bond0 and everything associated to eth0/1's configurations)?

Kind regards

Further on this:
if I (When the nic is renamed to eth1-eth0) click on the network in OMV, I get the error:

Zitat

Unsupported network interface detected (name=eth0-eth1)

with the error:

Zitat

Error #4001:

I did get this sorted by removing the PCI NIC, reBooting the machine, reConfiguring the Network and adding the nic back in.

My problem, though is that I have tried everything, changing /etc/network/interfaces. removing the 70 rules file and the problem would just return...

NOTE TO OTHER USERS:
I did not realize (Until I creted multiple bonds on multiple systems) that all the NIC's get the same address asigned once in a BONDED state. (This is very weird for me, but so be it. )
