I'd like to make a choice on my beastie.4th menu so that I can have network choices for home and work. For home, I'm wireless and dhcp and I need to load a few modules in my loader.conf, change rc.conf, and modify my hosts file a bit. For work, I'm wired and static, don't need anything in the loader.conf, I need different settings in rc.conf, revert my hosts file, and replace my resolv.conf. I'm running FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE-p10. -- Andy
