I have a laptop with a built-in Cisco MPI350 (MiniPCI Aironet 350) wire- less adapter (eth1). Here is ifcfg-eth1:
# Please read /usr/share/doc/initscripts-*/sysconfig.txt # for the documentation of these parameters. IPV6INIT=no ONBOOT=no USERCTL=yes PEERDNS=yes GATEWAY= TYPE=Wireless DEVICE=eth1 HWADDR=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx BOOTPROTO=dhcp NETMASK= DHCP_HOSTNAME= IPADDR= DOMAIN= ESSID=XXXXXXXX CHANNEL=1 MODE=Managed RATE=auto IWCONFIG=commit
Note the "ONBOOT=no". Despite this, the interface is activated every time I boot Fedora Core 3. (This didn't happen with FC2.)
The following services are turned on: cpuspeed, anacron, syslog, cups-config-daemon, readahead, ssd, microcode_ctl, atd, xinetd, haldaemon, readahead_early, cups, apmd, crond, sysstat, pcmcia, messagebus, network, iptables, xfs, kudzu, smartd, nscd. AFAIK, none of these daemons should be bringing up the interface.
Any ideas? Thanks!
