 Posted: Sun Jul 01, 2012 3:24 am Post subject: Network does not start at boot |
 |
|
I've added net.eth0 to to the default runlevel, but it does not start automatically. When manually invoking | Code: | | /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start |
network starts and works fine. In my /etc/conf.d/net i have config_eth0="dhcp", so it gets address from my DHCP and just works. Why network does not start at boot? I did all stuff as written in the Handbook. |

Here it is:
| Code: | $ ls -l /etc/runlevels/default/net.eth0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Jul 1 06:51 /etc/runlevels/default/net.eth0 -> /etc/init.d/net.eth0

nohup,
Check the contents of
| Code: | | cat /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules |
and
| Code: | | ifconfig|grep HWaddr |
Does dmesg say anything about eth0

Oops, after couple reboots it gets working properly :)
I can't say which of my actions fixed it. I only remember that I was installing nouveau drivers, disabling unneccesary features at the same time and rebuilding the kernel.
So my advice is: Read The Handbook Attentively. I often skip some chapters that seemed to be not about my particular hardware or needs, but what makes the problem solved in 98% of cases is Understanding.
Also here is my configs as you asked:
| Code: | $ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
# This file was automatically generated by the /lib/udev/write_net_rules
# program, run by the persistent-net-generator.rules rules file.
#
# You can modify it, as long as you keep each rule on a single
# line, and change only the value of the NAME= key.
# PCI device 0x10ec:0x8168 (r8169)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="00:1f:d0:b4:ab:d7", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0"
|
| Code: | $ /sbin/ifconfig|grep HWaddr
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1f:d0:b4:ab:d7
|
| Code: | $ dmesg|grep eth0
[ 4.647962] r8169 0000:02:00.0: eth0: RTL8168c/8111c at 0xffffc90000320000, 00:1f:d0:b4:ab:d7, XID 1c4000c0 IRQ 42

Are you saying that it's connecting at boot time now
Looking over your information, I don't see anything obvious that would prevent it from starting 
My dmesg shows [ 39.177104] sky2 0000:02:00.0: eth0: Link is up at 100 Mbps, full duplex, flow control both which is different than your [ 10.155233] r8169 0000:02:00.0: eth0: link up
I'm at kernel version 3.5.0-rc5 which might be the reason

Yes. As net.eth0 is in the default runlevel. |
