Do you perhaps have NetworkManager or wicd installed?


no, none of them, it is a very basic install, with only the minimum
packages installed . I have checked at the init script and find a line
in the depend section saying :

after lo lo0 dbus

but dbus is not yet installed, can this be the cause of my problem?

so I have just installed dbus and add it to default runlevel and my net.* script are loaded correctly setting my static config, so every thing is fine now.

But why do we need dbus in a very minimalistic system? I was thinking that it would be helpful in a full desktop environnement for automagically mounting device and things like that...

Saying that I've just remenbered that I have selected the desktop profile instead of the default one, can this be why my init script need dbus for starting net iface?
