As long as the disk controller is the same type you should be able to
bring it up and fix everything else. I'd set it up to not start X (init
level 3) so you can reconfigure it before it tries to start. You may
have to fix or remove the HWADDR= line in the
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file since it won't match the NIC.
