These can be put in the startup scripts. The first two can be set in your
default runlevel with the command:
rc-update add net.eth0 default
...and configure the eth0 interface in the file /etc/conf.d/net with the
line:
iface_eth0="dhcp"
and a good place to put your hdparm command is in the local.start file in
that directory.
rc-update is the command to add or delete other startup scripts in the
/etc/init.d directory. The /etc/conf.d is your directory for configuring
those scripts.
