Thanks I was aware of those. however I was looking for a method on the
kernel
boot line (as in I am installing and I dont want the network driver to
load).

I can accomplish this with noprobe  but then everything is gone.
There are individual items like nousb nopcmcia and I was looking and
have not found
one for nonetwork.

Thanks,
