Yes, I'm using DHCP on the ADSL interface.  (Well, Ethernet to an ADSL 
modem for now...)

That depends on how quickly Verizon's DHCP server responds...

Ok.  Is there a fix for that?

Or is that a result of using modules?

I'm surprised there isn't a kernel flag we can pass in on the "linux 
..." line from grub to fix that...

Ok.

Really?  I thought I did an "lsmod" when I booted up, and the module 
hadn't yet loaded...

I'll double-check.

My GND looks good?  ;-)

Ok.  It didn't seem that you could set options per-entry (like bootfile,
