Everything works perfectly again when I downgrade back to 1.11.14-r8. First bug: net.eth0 starts no matter what. I don't have net.eth0 in my rc (posted below) yet it seems to feel the need to start anyway. This behavior is annoying since I'm on a laptop and am almost never on a wired network. Second bug: net.wlan0 is completely borked. A workaround I found (I don't care if it's a hack right now) is to do sudo cp /etc/init.d/net.eth0 /etc/init.d/net.wlan0 I have no idea why my wireless internet now works, I haven't really looked into it. I don't know how closely related these two bugs are, but I don't feel like they need two separate bug reports. (Maybe I'm wrong). rc-update show -v acpid | alsasound | default apache2 | aumix | bootmisc | boot checkfs | boot checkroot | boot clock | boot coldplug | consolefont | boot crypto-loop | cupsd | dbus | dhcpd | dhcrelay | gpm | hald | hdparm | hostname | boot hotplug | boot keymaps | boot local | default nonetwork localmount | boot modules | boot net.eth0 | net.lo | boot net.wlan0 | default netmount | default nscd | numlock | pcmcia | rmnologin | boot rsyncd | samba | slpd | sshd | svnserve | syndaemon | syslog-ng | default urandom | boot xdm |
To reproduce: emerge baselayout 1.12.0-r1 moving from original baselayout Reproducible: Always* *I want to re-check the net.wlan0 bug later, I'm not sure if I can reproduce it now that I've done the sudo cp workaround. Post if you need me to. Just to clarify, net.eth0 does still work for me after the baselayout change. In fact, I can't make it stop working. net.wlan0 just dies. (by which I mean it fails to start - I can downgrade and re-upgrade later if necessary.) I don't have a fancy wireless config.

Lastly, please attach the actual error after re-creating the net.wlan0 net.lo symlink instead of just saying it's borked.
