10 The net.lo script does include this test:
11
12 # Ensure that loopback has the correct address
13 if [ "${IFACE}" = "lo" -o "${IFACE}" = "lo0" ]; then
14 if [ "$1" != "null" ]; then
15 config_0="127.0.0.1/8"
16 config_index=1
17 fi
18 else
19 if [ -z "$1" ]; then
20 ewarn "No configuration specified; defaulting to DHCP"
21 config_0="dhcp"
22 config_index=1
23 fi
24 fi
25
26 The value of ${IFACE} is set (I think) by looking at the ".lo"
27 or ".eth0" file extension of net.lo or net.eth0 (or whatever
28 symlink you created when you installed gentoo). If you don't
29 have a net.whatever symlink to net.lo, then openrc defaults to
30 dhcp.
31
32 Do you maybe not have a net.foo symlink, or an old obsolete one
33 in /etc/init.d ?
