A few things: 1. Run "equery check baselayout". If it reports anything wrong in /lib/rcscripts, re-merge it. 2. Make sure that net.eth1 is a symlink to net.lo, _not_ a copy of an old script. 3. You can set RC_NET_STRICT_CHECKING=lo in /etc/conf.d/rc to have the net dependancy satisified by net.lo, which will stop all other network services from trying to start net.eth1. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
