Hi again, Thank you all for your responses. After I sent my first email I modified the rc config to boot in parallel. The boot process was faster after that: just for the record, it takes 20 secs in a core 2 duo laptop to drop the login prompt without X, wireless supplicant, cron daemon or sound.
I will also take a look at ifplug/netplug. Thanks for the tip. > http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=4&chap=3#doc_chap3 Sorry but I already looked into that page, but I couldn't find the information I'm looking for. Could you be more explicit? Best regards, Damian.
