Description Bel Zébute 2004-11-11 11:36:03 UTC 
Should'nt the script check if the kernel is 802.1q capable?

Something along the line of this:

        if [[ -n "${vlans_IFACE}" && ! -f /proc/net/vlan/config ]]; then
                eerror "You need VLAN (802.1q) kernel support."
                return 1
        fi


Reproducible: Always

Fixed in CVS - we try and modprobe the vlan kernel module as well.

Fixed in baselayout-1.11.7-r1
