Backup copies are really worth them.

This was just line-wrapping, so there is no uncommented ``installation''
stanza, right?

If ``ip l'' lists eth0 among the interfaces, ``ifup eth0'' should work.
If you want this to be done automatically @ bootup, add ``auto eth0''
stanza above the ``iface eth0...'' line (maybe below it would be fine,
too, just for sure).
