Can anyone check the /etc/init.d/net.ethX script? There is always an error message when stopping: how about 2>&1 /dev/null?

# /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart
 * Bringing eth0 down...
 *   Removing inet6 addresses
 *     eth0 inet6 del fe80::230:84ff:fe3b:c6a6/64                         [ ok ]
 *   Releasing DHCP lease for eth0                                        [ ok ]
 *   Stopping eth0
