Hi, systemd-networkd randomly refuses to set up my network card at boot. It gets its proper persistent name but no IP address is assigned, regardless of whether I use a static configuration or DCHP. A simple "systemctl restart systemd-networkd.service" fixes it. I'm using a up to date Arch Linux and systemd 214.
