Does anyone know what configuration file controls the start order for the services in the /etc/rc.d/rcx.d folders?

Specifically, which file resets the order to the SuSe defaults if the order has been modified?

That is controlled by the Required-Start: line in the init script.

Before I changed the boot order so that PCMCIA would start first I would not get a network connection when first booted up. This because when the network is set to start first and the only connection to the network is a wireless pcmcia card, that hasn't started yet, you can't get an DHCP assigned ipaddress.

So if someone can tell me which file I can modify so the startup order of PCMCIA won't be reset when yast or YOU is run I would be grateful.

and then you should run SuSEconfig or insserv (see man 8 insserv)

Hope this works for you.

Correction SuSEconfig does not correct links, 'insserv -d' does. (Following up to one's own post with a correction is sure sign of senility I suspect.)
