Hi !
Why can't my Airport card (eth0) not be configured by DHCP automagically at startup ?
I edited /etc/conf.d/net as said in the docs : iface_eth0="dhcp", then rc-update, but, at start-up, "Bringing eth0 up" take very long time, then I receive
"Time out waiting for a valid DHCP server response - Failed to bring eth0 up -
ERROR : Problem starting needed services. "netmount" was not started"
This is strange, because I'm able to launch dhcpcd eth0 manually after the boot...
Thank you for your help,
Orphee |

Solved.
After verifying with dmesg, I noticed that the Airport card was bound to eth1, not eth0. (My mistake came from the installation process, where, after modprobe airport, airport was eth0).
Just had to do this :
# rc-update del net.eth0 default
# cp /etc/init.d/net.eth0 /etc/init.d/net.eth1
Edit the /etc/conf.d/net script, then
# rc-update add net.eth1 default
Now, the Airport card starts up well at the boot.
