I seem to be having a rather random problem. Either one of three things will happen on bootup:

1. net.lo starts twice with no warning
2. net.lo starts once, and the second time gives a warning it has already started
3. net.lo does not execute at all because it has syntax errors (displayed twice) but oddly still must run because localhost is up...

Any idea how to fix this? Net.lo appears to be working fine, it's only a cosmetic problem.

Here's my rc-update show, notice only 1 net.lo entry:

Code:

               acpid |      default       
           alsasound |      default       
               aumix |

             checkfs | boot               
           checkroot | boot

               cupsd |                     
                dbus |                     
          domainname |                     
              esound |                     
            festival |

             urandom | boot               
          vixie-cron |      default

I think net.lo needs to be started in the boot runlevel. It might be forced starting in boot, but then since the rc-system thinks it should start in default, it tries to start it again. Try adding it to boot, and see if that helps.
