The /etc/init.d/net.eth0 script doesn't start correctly anymore :( In practice during runlevel service start phase, the net.eth0 doesn't apper; but rc-status reports that the [started] status!!! If I want to start my network correctly I need to restart net.eth0 manually after each boot. I've tryed to move net.eth0 script from default to boot and viceversa but nothing has changed. I'm using sys-apps/baselayout-1.9.4-r6 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. simply switch on the PC ;) 2. 3.

Sounds like coldplug is starting the network script in the background for you Or you using coldplug or an old version of hotplug?
I'm using coldplug. In attiction... for /etc/init.d/splash the same thing happens :(
Well, coldplug is supposed to do that. Coldplug is supposed to load the relevant kernel module for the hardware when the system boots and then take an appropriate action. In the case of a network module, starting the network script. I've had a quick look over /etc/init.d/splash and you won't see any output if you don't have framebuffer support in your kernel.
Ok... but If I want to startup network service into default runlevel (coldplug starts it into boot runlevel) I can simply rename/delete /etc/hotplug/net.agent? Does exist some other elegant solution? ;) For the splash script... splash work only on the first console after boot, but if I restart the service /etc/init.d/splash restart all works well (splash appears on the other console too)
The problem is that I admin my network profile using a little script based on quickswitch, to solve my problem I have added depend (){ before coldplug } Into my personal script and I've added it on my boot runlevel. Thanks guys for your help ;) PS: The splash script is another story... It starts correclty, nothing about coldplug or baselayout :)
I change the state of bug to fixed...
