Sorry I used the wrong term, the problem is that the wireless
*adapter* is always turned on on boot, not the connection.
I can't find any relevant options in NetworkManager to disable that.
I ran system-config-network and unchecked "Activate when system
starts" for the wireless adapter,
but it's still turned on on boot, It's turned on before any details
are displayed on the screen (even before "Starting udev").
