Fedora and NetworkManager Quesiton

[Jay Estabrook]

Hi, Bob,

Easiest way I know, besides not installing in the first place, is:

1. boot to single user
2. chkconfig NetworkManager off
3. chkconfig network on
4. continue booting

I don't know if one can choose the "custom" install option and
de-select NetworkManager - I've never tried it, but perhaps that
would work (it should, but there may be deps that drag it in
anyway).

Good luck.
