Hi, I'm using baselayout-1.11.6-r1 and I can't start net.eth0 nor net.lo Alderan ~ # /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start * Starting eth0 * dhcpcd modified functions: dhcpcd_get_vars Alderan ~ # /etc/init.d/net.lo restart * WARNING: you are stopping a boot service. * Stopping lo * dhcpcd modified functions: dhcpcd_get_vars There is nothing special about my system, I didn't use any patches that could interfere with the net scripts.

I forgot to include my net conf, and by reviewing it, I found the problem ifconfig_eth1=( "dhcp" ) ifconfig_eth0=( "69.64.44.245 broadcast 69.64.44.255 netmask 255.255.255.0" ) routes_eth0=( "default gw 69.64.44.1" ) source /etc/init.d/wireless.sh preup() { wireless_up ${1} return $? } predown() { wireless_down ${1} return $? } I forgot that I have wireless-config-0.6.2 installed. it seems that it doesn't work anymore with the recent baselayout. After removing preup and predown, the net.eh0 and net.lo are working again. To install wireless-config I followed this howto: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=122435
baselayout-1.11.x has wireless stuff integrated. See /etc/conf.d/wireless.example
