Description Michael Sliwak 2003-08-14 08:36:16 UTC

this is an update to the rc-script for starting network-devices.

when starting, it checks if a cable is connected to the interface.
depending on the cable plugged in or not, it will or will not start dhcpcd.

this is an initial release. i'm going to add a routine that will repeatingly
check the interface for a cable and launch dhcpcd if necessary.

this script requires mii-diag to be installed.
