Error: Device eth0 does not seem to be present delaying initialization vmware

I faced this issue while restarting networking service of a virtual machine. This machine was cloned. This error "Device eth0 does not seem to be present delaying initialization" is basically due to mac address mismatching. if we see mac address in "ifcfg-eth0" file:






here mac address is:00:0C:29 and if we see from virtual machine setting,
 


  mac address is: 00:50:56.
so change mac address in "ifcfg-eth0"file.

There is one more point open /etc/udev.d/70-persistent-net.rules


You will see device eth0 has “00:0C:29” that is incorrect. Correct mac address is assigned to device eth1. So comment first line and change eth1 to eth0 in second line and reboot the system.
