If you try 'ifup eth1' or 2,3,4 and it comes up then

Take a look at 
/etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules:

I had this occur on a laptop.  My net_rules file had a bunch of
eth lines and my eth1 cane up when I did 'ifup eth6".  Removed all of
the eth rules except eth0 and all was well again.

:-) HTH, YMMV, HAND :-)
