Or possibly you have the net.* stuff in wrong runlevels that makes them start too early? There could also be a problem regarding netifrc's udev hotplugging, you can disable it altogether by: # ln -s /dev/null /etc/udev/rules.d/90-network.rules The symlink to /dev/null in /etc/udev/rules.d/90-network.rules makes /lib/udev/rules.d/90-network.rules no-op. Notice this 90-network.rules is also part of net-misc/netifrc, so don't make the mistake of assuming this is a bug in any of udev, eudev or systemd - Samuli
