Does this not then delay services depending on net.eth0? Although it |
| 19 |
would perhaps make sense to do init scripts in the order: |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
1) Everything needed to get eth0 up |
| 22 |
2) net.eth0 |
| 23 |
3) Non network reliant stuff |
| 24 |
4) Network reliant stuff |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
If this makes sense ... ;> |
