I have two ethernet devices, eth0 and ra0. "net.eth0" is supposed to start in the "default" runlevel, while "net.ra0" is not supposed to start at all - it's a wireless card, and I'm not using it now. However, when the computer boots, I see a message: "Device initiated services: net.eth0 net.ra0". And, it attempts to start net.ra0. Why? I searched Google, but with no success. emerge --info: Portage 2.1_rc1-r2 (default-linux/x86/2005.1, gcc-4.0.3, glibc-2.4-r1, 2.6.16-suspend2-r4 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.16-suspend2-r4 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2000+ Gentoo Base System version 1.12.0_pre19 dev-lang/python: 2.4.2 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: [Not Present] dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.12 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r2 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O2 -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/eselect/compiler /etc/gconf /etc/splash /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O2 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig ccache distlocks metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo/ http://gentoo.noved.org/" LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8" LINGUAS="en uk ru de es" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude='/distfiles' --exclude='/local' --exclude='/packages'" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 3dnow X aac aalib acl acpi aim alsa asf audiofile avi bcmath berkdb bitmap-fonts browserplugin bzip2 cairo cdparanoia cli crypt css cups curl dbus dga directfb divx4linux dri dvd dvdr emboss encode fbcon fbsplash ffmpeg flash foomaticdb gcj gdbm gif glut gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 hal icq idn imlib ipv6 isdnlog javascript jikes jpeg jpeg2k kde kdeenablefinal lcms lesstif libg++ libwww litz live lm_sensors logitech-mouse mad mikmod mmx mng mp3 mpeg mplayer msn musicbrainz ncurses nls nptl nsplugin offensive ogg oggvorbis openexr opengl oscar pam pcre pdf pdflib perl pic png povray ppds pppd qt quicktime rdesktop readline real reflection rtc samba scanner sdl session sftplogging slp snmp speex spell spl sse ssl startup-notification subversion svg tcpd tetex theora tiff timidity truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode usb vorbis wifi win32codecs xcomposite xine xinerama xml2 xorg xprint xscreensaver xv xvid yahoo zeroconf zlib elibc_glibc input_devices_mouse input_devices_keyboard kernel_linux linguas_en linguas_uk linguas_ru linguas_de linguas_es userland_GNU video_cards_radeon video_cards_ati" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LDFLAGS, MAKEOPTS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
Disable coldplug for this service in /etc/conf.d/rc if you don't want this (see the comments there for details). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 130351 ***
