Description Piotr Karbowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2015-03-08 09:16:49 UTC 
I've spotted that net.lo is not started on my ~amd64 system, confirmed by running `status` on net.lo initscript.

If net.lo is added to any runlevel it is actaully started twice, the 2nd one always fails.

Please ignore this report.

It loopback initscript of openrc was to blame here, to not be used with 'net.lo'.
