Em...you can't run that before you modprobe ipv6. And when you modprobe
ipv6, don't you quickly pick up the router advertisments ? It certainly
doesn't seem to clean out any routers learned from routers.
Also, is there a handly sysctl then to disable IPv6? Someone told me of
it, but I can't find mention of it in Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt
