[gentoo-user] openvswitch vs. openrc network scripts

[Konstantinos Agouros]

Hi,

is anybody using openvswitch together with the openrc network scripts?
The point is, that the physical network interface will be added to the 
vswitch and thus not have the IP-address configured by /etc/init.d/net.X.
To make the box reachable the switch that contains the physical interface
needs to have the box's IP assigned to it. In order for this to work, the
ovs-scripts need to be started before networking starts. Is there a way
to achieve this without modifying the init-scripts since this gets
overridden with the next update.

Cheers,

Konstantin
