• Product: [OLD] Docs on www.gentoo.org

[Description William Waisse 2011-08-01 18:52:35 UTC]

Following the handbook for install and i found a little detail concerning 8.b networking information :

its just a detaill, but could still need an update
in : code listing 2.8, adding net.eth0
at this point of the handboot, /etc/init.d/net.eth0 does not exist
before that you need to ln -s net.lo net.eth0 , which is not said in the handbook
this is said later in case you need net.eth1 , but nothingg for net.eth0


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.follow the handbook for install

I don't think this is a duplicate, more like one of the dependencies of bug #213988. I'll draft up a quick fix and attach.
