Hello, I am following the runlevel guide http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=2&chap=4 to set up an offline runlevel for my laptop. I have in /etc/runlevels/offline:
rmason # rc-update show offline acpid | offline cpufreqd | offline gpm | offline ivman | offline local | offline pcmcia | offline syslog-ng | offline vixie-cron | offline Based on the ouput of <scriptname> ineed, nothing there needs net.eth0. When I boot into the kernel with this entry in grub.conf: # For booting GNU/Linux title Gentoo Linux 2.6.17-gentoo-r8 (offline) root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/kernel-2.6.17-gentoo-r8 root=/dev/sda3 softlevel=offline the system still tries to start eth0 and then wastes time while dhcpd times out. I am not sure what what I have done wrong. Can anyone help? Thanks, Roger Mason -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
