On startup eth0 hangs while bringing up dhcpcd. It then gives me the [!!] error.

The problem is that my pcmcia wireless card is on eth1 and works fine.

I'd like to disable eth0 on startup so the machine boots up faster without the error message...

...or am I going about this the wrong way?

Code:
rc-update del net.eth0 default

This would stop the initscripts from initiating the eth0 setup during startup.

Depends on how up to date your installation is though...
it might be just 'net' or anything
