Right, carrier is always zero on all machines if the interface is down, so I
expect they try to bring the network interface up before, maybe increasing a
waiting time to let the network driver settle down a bit, works?

On adalid this test script shows that it takes rather long until the link
is detected (more than 1 sec, under high load possibly longer):

#!/bin/bash

for ((x=0;x<5;x++)); do
        ifconfig eth1 down;
        ifconfig eth1 up;
        sleep $x
        cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/0000:02:03.1/net/eth1/carrier;
done


/tmp/network_test.sh
0
0
1
1
1

Can the timeout in yast to let the network settle down and to check the link 
be increased, pls.
