i'd be interested to hear how you go.
i'm looking to replace the very manual 'ifscheme' setup i currently have.
the only real issue i have at the moment is that at boot networking takes a
very long time (~5 minutes).
under breezy there was no delay at boot but the wireless (Lucent/Agere
Wavelan) was not initialised until after Gnome had loaded.

labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?
