Re: [gentoo-user] stop eth0 from starting at boot
I modified the RC_PLUG_SERVICES like this: RC_PLUG_SERVICES=net.ra0 !net.eth0 This appears to have worked perfectly! net.eth0 does not start at boot at all. Thanks so much!

[gentoo-user] stop eth0 from starting at boot
/etc/init.d/net.eth0 is not in any runlevels: o_0 tony # rc-update show bootmisc | boot checkfs | boot checkroot | boot clock | boot consolefont | boot hald | default hostname | boot keymaps | boot local | default nonetwork localmount | boot modules | boot net.lo | boot net.wlan0 | default netmount | default ntp-client | default rmnologin | boot sshd | default udev-postmount | default urandom | boot vixie-cron | default xdm | default Yet it still insists on trying to start at boot! This isn't What I Want, since this computer is a laptop and I generally use the wifi. Could it be related to udev or hotplug? Thanks, -Tony
Re: [gentoo-user] stop eth0 from starting at boot
The easiest way to rectify this, I've found, is to just delete /etc/init.d/net.eth0. Alternately, if you do want to keep the init script around, but don't want to wait for it to time out before continuing the boot process, what I did was add dhcpcd_eth0=-b to fork it into the background. As for what is trying to start net.eth0, I think there's an option in either /etc/rc.conf or /etc/conf.d/rc that determines what counts as net for init scripts that need net: no net required, loopback only, one non-loopback, or all of the net.* scripts. Try looking into that.
