dhcp can be slow on some combinations. Fixed IP is faster.
Agreed, but I don't think that is the cause of the delay. It's more like a timeout delay.
Exactly what I would expect.
Why would you expect it to not get an address?
I didn't say that.
Read again the next paragraph:
Doesn't help me understand, I'm afraid.
While it doesn't get an address it waits, and forces to wait the whole sequence of boot. There are many services that depend on network, so they all wait. Till timeout.
Why it doesn't get an address is a different issue. But whatever network setup daemon you use, it has to wait till it gets one. And if it is the system connection, the machine doesn't boot, or waits for as long as the timeout is.
I have no reason to suppose that it isn't getting an address, so I see no reason for it to be waiting for anything. You're the one that is suggesting that you would expect it to be waiting for an address, so I'm asking you why you think it might be waiting for an address. I don't know of any reason. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
