Did a network install of Squeeze the other day, on a computer without wireless. Normally I remove everything but lo in /etc/network/interfaces, but after resume from suspend network-manager reported disabling device eth0 for reason 2, whatever that meant, and the only way to bring it back up was to reboot. It was gone from ifconfig!
I found that adding eth0 back into /etc/network/interfaces prevented this strange disabling of hardware by network-manager when coming out of suspend, however, at boot now if the network cable isn't plugged in, as it sometimes isn't, the boot process will stalll as dhcp tries and tries and tries to obtain an ip address. Hoping someone can help move me along here a bit quicker at boot-up. Many thanks, AM -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
