Is the rtl8129 module loaded? Do lsmod and see. If it's loaded, you
should have an eth0 device. ifconfig -a to see if you have both lo and
eth0 devices.
The ifcfg-lo file should exist... try creating it manually. That is
probably why it is complaining. ifcfg-lo should look like this:
DEVICE=lo
IPADDR=127.0.0.1
NETMASK=255.0.0.0
NETWORK=127.0.0.0
# If you're having problems with gated making 127.0.0.0/8 a martian,
# you can change this to something else (255.255.255.255, for example)
BROADCAST=127.255.255.255
ONBOOT=yes
NAME=loopback
