Dynamically defining classes, ordering, hardware detection

[Niall Young]

Has anyone looked into dynamically defining new classes based on
hardware detection routines like kudzu?

How about overriding other class behaviour with hooks and files, I
guess that gets back to the order in which everything is defined
and run - e.g. class FOO installs /etc/lilo.conf but if class BAH
also has one, how can I guarantee that BAH replaces it *after* FOO
has finished?

I'm back to thinking about class ordering and inheritence now, anyone
looking into this stuff already?
