DHCP? Next, could you please: 1) provide your /etc/fstab 2) set RUN_PARALLEL="no" and WAIT_FOR_INTERFACES to some higher value (300) and check if it helps (I presume 300s is enough for eth1 to get configured).

Eth1 is initialized statically to an IP address of 192.168.2.100 An additional FYI, I am mounting a network drive - named //teraserver and it does require the DHCP server to be running in order to assign it it's IP address. As you read the rest of my report, keep this in mind as I think it may be part of the issue since it is critical that this be mounted for my bacula backup server. I have attached a copy of my fstab file with some sensitive info remove. In the meantime, I have come up with a partial workaround that improves things a bit, but I am still experiencing a slow initialization of eth1 (not as slow) For the workaround I commented out the mount of the network drive - teraserver and use an autofs mount instead. I tested your suggestions, with RUN_PARALLEL="no" in the /etc/sysconfig/boot file and WAIT_FOR_INTERFACES="300" in the /etc/sysconfig/network/config file, removed the autofs mount for my terastation network drive and configured fstab to mount it instead. This resulted in a very long pause during the boot up of about 5 minutes when eth1 was being initialized. Once past that pause, most of my other services came up ok, except I run bacula which is dependent upon the //teraserver/share being mounted at /data/terastation. This mount failed and when the system came up, I had to do a manual mount -a to get it mounted, then start the bacula service manually also. So I will reconfigure my system to use autofs as a workaround, but I think this problem should still be fixed and some thought given to how these services and activities be staged. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
