Hi Have a look at: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7407 and see if that is the cause. Also try the latest baselayout.
just curious but did you intend on having 193.x.x.x address space aliased?
yes bug #7407 seems to address the same problem upgrading to baselayout-1.8.4 did help, but the netmasks still do not get assigned correctly. no i did not try a 193.* net *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 7407 ***
Can you give the output if ifconfig, plus /etc/conf.d/net now please. Also some debugging would be appreciated.
