I'm sorry, but I've never tried Gentoo, but I'm sure there are ways :)
The start-up scripts that reside in locations in the /etc/rc.d/r0X.d
SYS4 format, say like Caldera or Redhat, then the system numbers
are the ones you modify for networking and pcmcia are, for example
/etc/rc.d/rc.6/S10network { this is for reboot}.
" " " S07pcmcia
/etc/rc.d/rc.0/S10network { this is for shutdown or halt }
" " " S07pcmcia
ie, you should see something in your directory listing like
the above in there.
A lazy way to do this is to merely exchange the STARTUP numbers
sequence, so they could look something like a 'move' command by
root. From the command line.
Switch these numbers around to get the sequence you
want; They should now read something like
/etc/rc.d/rc.0/S07network
/etc/rc.d/rc.0/S10pcmcia
/etc/rc.d/rc.6/S07network
/etc/rc.d/rc.6/S10pcmcia
>From the command line, your work would look like this...
]$ su root
]$ Password? <your password>
]$ cd /etc/rc.d/rc.0
]# mv S07pcmcia S10pcmcia
]# mv S10network S07network
]# ls -al
