after emerging the new version of baselayout, the rc-script net.eth1(the one involved for my wireless card) failed with the error: /lib/rcscripts/net.modules.d/iwconfig : 695 /dev/nul permission denied (or something about wrong permission) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge =baselayout-1.11.10 2.reboot 3./etc/init.d/net.eth1 start Actual Results: configuration to wireless failed Expected Results: it should work (was working with latter baselayout 1.11.*) it's actually a typo if you replace in the file /lib/rcscripts/net.modules.d/iwconfig the line 695 /dev/nul by /dev/null it will work fine. emerge info: Portage 2.0.51.19 (default-linux/x86/2004.3, gcc-3.3.5, glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r1, 2.6.10-ck5 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.10-ck5 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.60GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.6.10 Python: dev-lang/python-2.3.4-r1 [2.3.4 (#1, Feb 18 2005, 15:37:26)] dev-lang/python: 2.3.4-r1 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.59-r6, 2.13 sys-devel/automake: 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.5, 1.4_p6, 1.6.3, 1.9.4 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.10-r4 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.8.1-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-Os -march=pentium3 -msse2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-Os -march=pentium3 -msse2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig ccache distlocks fixpackages sandbox sfperms" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://trumpetti.atm.tut.fi/gentoo/ http://ds.thn.htu.se/linux/gentoo/ http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync8.de.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X acpi alsa atapi ati avi bash-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts cdr crypt cups curl directfb dvd emboss encode fbcon flash font-server foomaticdb fortran gdbm ggi gif gpm gtk gtk2 imagemagick imlib ipv6 java jpeg lcms libg++ libwww mad mikmod mmx mmx2 motif mp3 mpeg ncurses nls nptl oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl png python quicktime readline reiserfs socks5 spell sse sse2 ssl svga tcpd tiff truetype-fonts type1-fonts x86 xml2 xmms xv zlib video_cards_ati" Unset: ASFLAGS, CBUILD, CTARGET, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, PORTDIR_OVERLAY
