I've got wifi configured with madwifi and use my wifi interface a lot more than the ethernet I had thought that removing net.eth0 from rc-update, but that didn't seem to work. Every time I booted, the interface tried to go up and get dhcp information. I then read about and used a preup function to check that interfaces are actually connected before they are brought up, and this essentially solves the problem. It occurs to me that it would just be a whole lot easier and cleaner if net.eth0 just didn't try to start at all, but I haven't found any way to do this short of removing the init.d script from rc-update.
My question is, is there any way to stop net.eth0 from starting besides ethtool's preup function? Thanks. -- -·=»Ðŧħ«=·- ���z� ��(��&j)b� b�
