The rc3.d/S10network script incorrectly fails to ignore commented lines in ifcfg-XXXX when searching for devices to be activated on boot. A corrected version of the script is attached.

Thanks; will be fixed in 5.07-1.
Forget I said that. The behavior has always been that the interface will be brought up *unless* ONBOOT is set to 'no'; hence, commenting out the line has no effect.
