It seems to me that we we're rapidly approching the day when we need to merge the relevent code from /etc/pccard_ether and /etc/rc.network(6). This will be especialy true with NEWCARD where "ifconfig -l" will include your PC Card/CardBus NIC which may result in it being configured via rc.network in some situations. This is already annoying with things like an which sometimes the an driver which sometimes attaches as a PC Card and sometimes as a PCI or ISA card. -- Brooks -- Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
