I tend to set the eth0 dhcpcd timeout at ~5 seconds. The DHCP server I |
| 39 |
usually use (the gentoo based server under my desk!) always responds |
| 40 |
within 5 seconds. When I'm out and about and using/"borrowing" a |
| 41 |
wireless connection it means that it only slows the boot process by 5 |
| 42 |
seconds and doesnt require me to manually enable or disable eth0. |
