USB NICs

[stan <stanb@panix.com>]

I replaced a PCI NIC with a USB one this weekend, adn when the machine
boots the networking does not come up any more.

If I run the networking init.d script (stop and satr) then networking comes
up fine. My suspcion is that the networking init script is run before the
USB NIC is set up. 

dmesg is not a lot of help here, as this is all handled in the init scripts
_after_ teh kernel finishes booting. There doesn't seem to be a log file
that contains all the post kernel init boot stuff. Can I cause one to be
created?

Anyone have any sugestiosn as to how to start troubleshooting this?
