rotfl, btw. oh my aching sides. I may have to quote
that. reminds me of windows 95 hardware detection

May I suggest chkconfig --level 2345 kudzu off, a less invasive way
to achieve this, without burning bridges. /sbin/kudzu can still be run
manually then, if the hardware does change and you're lazy (and you
trust kudzu :)
