Description Ludwig Nussel 2006-01-05 09:53:05 UTC
my network interface with STARTMODE=ifplugd is not activated during boot. "rcnetwork start" later does activate it though. The following change helps:

The fix above is needed if interfaces which are should be controlled by ifplugd are not available when rcnetwork starts but appear later. This patch makes rcnetwork wait for them, too.
But then after one such an interface appeared, its status will be checked. And if no cable is connected this and interface is configured for dhcp, then ifstatus will always return 'down'. Therefore we additionally need a patch for ifstatus to make it work properly.
