depend() { use net.lo # localmount needed for $basedir need localmount } So that's quite nice and all, but the mysql init script hangs indefinitely (>10min) at bootup and doesn't respond to ctrl-c, ctrl-s etc. This effectively disables that machine as no local console is available and network + ssh hasn't been started yet. Need to reboot, remove mysql from runlevel and restart ... very very not nice. 120507 13:03:12 InnoDB: Initializing buffer pool, size = 20.0G 120507 13:03:14 InnoDB: Completed initialization of buffer pool 120507 13:03:15 InnoDB: Started; log sequence number 0 44233 120507 13:03:15 [ERROR] Can't start server: Bind on TCP/IP port: Cannot assign requested address 120507 13:03:15 [ERROR] Do you already have another mysqld server running on port: 3306 ? 120507 13:03:15 [ERROR] Aborting This happens because net.eth0 is not started at that time as far as I can tell, so ... please make it behave sanely.

Hackaround that works awesomely: depend() { use net.lo net.eth0 # localmount needed for $basedir need localmount } (Yes, I know that it is wrong in the general case, but at least that server cleanly boots now ...)
The answer appears to be in the conf.d file for mysql-init-scripts-2.0_pre1-r2. # Does your MySQL bind to an IP on an interface other than net.lo? # Alternatively you might wish to specify the exact interface here. #rc_use="net" #rc_after="net" Did you remove the comment and modify the values to suit your needs?
None of the suggestions work for me. Tried adding use net.eth0 to /etc/init.d/mysql or setting rc_use or rc_after or both to net.eth0 and mysql still hangs on startup. I use ifplugd. I have to start mysql manually after booting.

In your case, use rc_need="net.eth0" (or your specific interface) You can also use rc_need="net" for all interfaces. This will delay mysql from starting thanks to OpenRC. Note that mysql will fail to start if the interface is never active. IMPORTANT: This setting will gracefully stop mysql if the interface goes back to inactive. If that last part is undesirable, then your only option looks to be the manual start/stop of mysql
