Read /usr/share/doc/openrc-0.6.0/net.example to add some preup() stuff to my /etc/conf.d/net. For testing your ethernet link, you can use mii-tool. The text says (line 938-911): ... # # Test for link on the interface prior to bringing it up. This # # only works on some network adapters and requires the mii-diag # # package to be installed. # if mii-tool "${IFACE}" 2> /dev/null | grep -q 'no link'; then ... But mii-tool is (now) in the sys-apps/net-tools package, so this text should be changed. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Read net.example 2. Try to install mii-diag package, which doesn't exist
Should be pushing an update in about a week for official tree.
This is already in the tree now
