Hello. Running the latest Factory x86_64 (it looks like 13.1 Beta 1). Changing runlevel to multi-user.target (init 3) drops my network connection: # runlevel N 5 # ifconfig eth0 eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:13:D3:A2:29:DF inet addr:172.31.1.3 Bcast:172.31.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::213:d3ff:fea2:29df/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:71945 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:28368 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:24891189 (23.7 Mb) TX bytes:3509001 (3.3 Mb) Interrupt:16 # systemctl status network.service network.service - LSB: Configure network interfaces and set up routing Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/network.service; enabled) Active: active (exited) since Fri 2013-09-20 08:17:22 MSK; 14h ago Process: 710 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/network start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Sep 20 08:17:21 lazy network[710]: Setting up network interfaces: Sep 20 08:17:21 lazy network[710]: lo Sep 20 08:17:21 lazy network[710]: lo IP address: 127.0.0.1/8 Sep 20 08:17:22 lazy network[710]: ..done..done eth1 Startmode is 'off' -> skipping Sep 20 08:17:22 lazy ifup[1383]: eth1 Startmode is 'off' -> skipping Sep 20 08:17:22 lazy network[710]: ..skippedSetting up service network . . . . . . . . . . . . ...done Sep 20 08:17:22 lazy systemd[1]: Started LSB: Configure network interfaces and set up routing.
