I too don't use NM or BOINC but I do use F9

On F8, this clearly was a problem...
# grep chkconfig /etc/init.d/NetworkManager
# chkconfig: - 98 02

but on F9, I would have thought that this would have solved some of
these issues...
# grep chkconfig /etc/init.d/NetworkManager
# chkconfig: - 27 84

which would have it start up much earlier (of course if this was an
upgrade instead of clean install, I don't know if the sequences are
adjusted when the upgrade is accomplished). I don't have BOINC installed
but I have to believe that the startup sequence number would already
have it loading after NM.

I would think that moving it up from 98 to 27 would have solved many of
the reported issues but perhaps not...I just don't know and as you say,
I don't personally use NM.

My own personal preference would be to leave NM enabled at boot time and
put '/sbin/server boinc restart' in rc.local only because sometimes I
look at boot time services and would want to know that the 'intent' was
to start it up.
