Description cyberbat 2013-11-30 17:21:20 UTC

My server fails starting networks interface using udhcpc while booting. Here is the log:

Dec  1 01:07:04 microserver udhcpc[1491]: udhcpc (v1.21.0) started

network cable is plugged all the time while booting. Setting IP statically works ok. Seems that it some timeout should be more for udhcpc.
