Hi Brian,
I have never seen these lines in console logs
ep93xx-eth version 0.1 loading
eth0: ep93xx on-chip ethernet, IRQ 39, 00:0e:3a:11:22:33.
Well I searched "ep93xx-eth" a lot in the scripts where it is loaded but
I can't figure out.

I just want to Disable Network Support at boot time so that boot time
can be Reduced. Then enable it again after boot.

If you can provide me some more insight, that will be great.


Regards,
Vivek :-

That means your network subsystem drivers are loading.  Not the physical
Ethernet Device.

For a device you should see something like this.

ep93xx-eth version 0.1 loading
eth0: ep93xx on-chip ethernet, IRQ 39, 00:0e:3a:11:22:33.


what you are seeing is networking support, not device support.

Like 
Packet Socket
IP: tunneling

and what not.
