Ok, I know this question must have a simple answer that I'm just not getting. I cant seem to set up my ibook to default to net.eth0, i ran
Code:

rc-config add net.eth0 default

and everything came up good, it said it had been added or what not. However when i reboot i have nothing, and have to run dchpcd eth0 to get networking up again. I'm pretty sure im just not doing something small that is required, like editing a config or something.

Sorry for the new q. thanks in advance.
