Unfortunately, the scripts that start the ethernet interfaces do so by 
alphabetical order!

You need the br0 device to be started AFTER eth0.

Simply move the file:
     /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-br0
     to
     /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-zbr0

The contents of the file, ie: interface name, do not have to match the 
name of the file.

Good luck!
