John,
Fedora supports network profiles as does all versions of RH Linux, the
following code is in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit, you should be able to figure
out the rested your self.
--- snip ---
# Boot time profiles. Yes, this should be somewhere else.
if [ -x /usr/sbin/system-config-network-cmd ]; then
if strstr "$cmdline" netprofile= ; then
for arg in $cmdline ; do
if [ "${arg##netprofile=}" != "${arg}" ]; then
/usr/sbin/system-config-network-cmd --profile
${arg##netprofile=}
fi
done
fi
fi
--- snip ---

Hello!
A while back I had opensuse on one of my laptops and it had the
ability to to change certain aspects of the boot process based on a
predefined profile.
Does anyone know of any utility that will allow such functionality on
fedora 7. Specifically I would like to change certain aspects of the
network configuration during boot up, based on whether I am wired or
wireless.
Thanks
