The relevant bits from /etc/rc.conf:

HOSTNAME="dublin"
#eth0="eth0 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255"
#INTERFACES=(eth0)
NETWORKS=(eth)
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng @cpufreq @net-profiles @hal @alsa @crond @cups @mpd
@ntpd @sshd)

Note that the INTERFACES array is commented out, as is the eth0 setting itself.

Now, my eth profile as defined in /etc/network.d/eth:

# /etc/network.d/eth
CONNECTION="ethernet"
DESCRIPTION="A very basic ethernet profile, using dhcp"
INTERFACE=eth0
IP="dhcp"
DHCP_TIMEOUT=10

I also have separate profiles for the various wifi networks I connect to.

Hope this helps.
