When Knoppix starts up and does not find an iface running, because say
I have not yet switched on the router, it 'backgrounds' the net.eth0
script and carries on with the boot process.  How can I set my Gentoo
up so that it does the same?

I remember reading about it a couple of years back and never got
around to doing it . . .
