look at the rc_hotplug option in /etc/rc.conf something like rc_hotplug="!net.eth0" should work for you... the other option is, if you emerge ifplugd, the net.eth0 service will use ifplugd to see if there is a cable connected... it will start but will not set up the interface until you plug in a cable... yoyo
