I'm not sure how to go about debugging this problem.
If I set up a /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0 file for my
wireless network NIC and ifup wlan0 then everything works. If I reboot
and the wireless NIC is not present then during the boot process
something moves the ifcfg-wlan0 file to ifcfg-wlan0.bak. This is
obviously not great since then when the NIC becomes available again all
the config for it has vanished so I can't ifup it until I've put the
ifcfg-wlan0 file back.
However, I have absolutely no idea what might be removing the
configuration on boot. My only guess is that it might be Kudzu, but that
really is a bit of a blind guess.
