As modules in /etc/modules.autoload.d/2.6. And they
all load before /etc/conf.d/net is reached. Don't tell
me I have to put them in the kernel now. That's lame.
It assumes I want to dial out every time I boot up.
Not true.

Don't know. But now the link(if you mean the sym-link
from net.lo to net.ppp0) is made in /etc/conf.d/net
where it says cd something something, ln -s net.lo
net.ppp0. Which is confusing because why does it have
to make the link every time the PC boot's. And then
when it boots it says something like "file already
exists". But see my thread "emerge wvdial issues" for
more detail.

I even created the device useing mknod with the major,
minor numbers from ../Documentation/devices.txt.

No dice.
