--- Comment #109 from Marius Tomaschewski 2009-02-02 08:19:53 MST ---
The problem that the network script waits for an interface until
timeout (WAIT_FOR_INTERFACES in /etc/sysconfig/network/config),
occurs under two conditions:
a) there are ifcfg files (interface configurations) for hardware
that does not exists (any more) as in comment #103 and comment
#107.
solution =>
Delete the [excrescent] ifcfg files or set
STARTMODE='off' or 'manual' in these files.
b) there is a separate tmpfs mounted on /dev/shm (via /etc/fstab),
that hides the sysconfig udev rule state files created before
/dev/shm got mounted.
solution =>
Remove /dev/shm mount point from /etc/fstab. A separate
/dev/shm is not required, because /dev is already a tmpfs
with a maximal size of 50% of RAM.
In case that 50% of RAM for the tmpfs is not sufficient
because of special requirements of some software, the
size can be adopted by adding an /etc/init.d/boot.local
line, like:
/bin/mount -oremount,size=3g /dev
to remount it with the desired size (3GB in this example).
I'm resolving this Bug as WONTFIX, because it is not sufficient
to just change the /dev/shm/sysconfig path [used for many years]
in sysconfig to something else, because it affects also several
another packages and may break custom if-up.d/if-down.d scripts.
We'll address this issue in a later/next openSUSE version.
