https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=335486 User mt@novell.com added comment https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=335486#c11 --- Comment #11 from Marius Tomaschewski <mt@novell.com> 2008-05-09 02:01:08 MST --- The problem seems to be caused by some inconsistency of the scripts after the update... I can not reproduce this problem (see attachment in next comment). In comment #4 and comment #9 an old (not from last update) rcnetwork script is used. Please update, there was fixes also to the mandatory wait loop. (In reply to comment #3 from Walter Haidinger)
/var/log/boot.msg with network debugging enabled: (please note the "unknown option" error messages!)
The "unknown option rc ignored" is just debug output from ifup-wireless script without any relevance (it just informs about ignored rc option). Please update the sysconfig package to the most recent update package: http://download.opensuse.org/update/10.3/rpm/i586/sysconfig-0.70.2-4.2.i586r... http://download.opensuse.org/update/10.3/rpm/x86_64/sysconfig-0.70.2-4.2.x86... then, please verify the package using rpm -V sysconfig When rpm reports some modification/inconsistence like: # rpm -V sysconfig S.5....T /etc/init.d/network remove the reported files and install the package again. Verify the udev installation using "rpm -V udev" as well. # ls -l /etc/udev/rules.d/*net*.rules | cut -b 23- 450 9. Mai 08:17 /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules 1518 21. Sep 2007 /etc/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules 823 24. Apr 00:26 /etc/udev/rules.d/77-network.rules The /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules is generated and contains mapping of the hardware to the interface name. Please verify, it reflect your hardware address (MAC) and the ifcfg-<interface> files in /etc/sysconfig/network. (In reply to comment #9 from Peter Küppers)
I marked the line with the supposed bug with a comment (this leaves the for-loop!), see above. Since the for-loop is stopped here, the variable PHYSICAL_IFACES has no value! And what's about "virgin and looping" from openSUSE 10.2?
I hope this gives a hint for a solution to the bug.
No, the scripts / rule files (in sysconfig and udev) are rewritten for 10.3 and are simplier in many places. On 10.3, the "ifcfg-<hardware-description>" (ifcfg-eth-id-00:01:02:8E:21) support is removed completely, we just use ifcfg-<interfacename>. The PHYSICAL_IFACES variable is empty, because the interface is not up until now and we wait for udev to load the modules. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
