Oh shit, the upstart :-(

I disabled the start of "wpa_supplicant", "network" and NetworkManager.

In /etc/rc.d/rc5.d I have

S10Networking -> ../init.d/Networking
                           ^^^^^^^^^^ This is a script which main part is

#! /bin/bash
#
# network       Bring up/down networking
#
# chkconfig: 235 10 90
# description: Activates/Deactivates all network interfaces configured to \
#              start at boot time.

### BEGIN INIT INFO

# See how we were called.
case "$1" in
  start)
        /etc/init.d/wpa_supplicant start
        /etc/init.d/network        start
        ;;
  stop)
        /etc/init.d/network        stop
        /etc/init.d/wpa_supplicant stop
        ;;


So *I" define the sequence.
