15 Well, he could:
16 - generate two files:
17 /etc/init.d/setup_mobile
18 /etc/init.d/setup_home
19 - each on them copies the according setup to /etc/conf.d/net
20 - both have a "before net" the depend()
21 - setup_home is in default, setup_mobile is in the mobile
22 runlevel
23 - configure grub with a additional option using softboot=mobile
24
25 To change runlevels after boot he would have to:
26 /etc/init.d/net.eth0 stop
27 rc other_level
28 though.
