How to Disable Eth0 on Startup?

Hey Everybody,

My linux box has multiple ethernet connections and I don't use eth0 because it is only 100mbs . However, whenever I restart my box FC4 searches for the IP information of Eth0. I was wondering how to disable eth0 on startup? I would still like the capability to enable Eth0 from Ethernet Device Control if I must.

Thanks for all the help!

Go to System configuration->Network configuration->Select eth0->Click modify->Uncheck "Activate this device at boot"

And thats that.

It didn't kill me to help you, would it kill you to say whether it worked or not? And what about thanks?
