I'm running 3.8.13-bone69 on a beaglebone black rev c. With eth0 setup for auto and dhcp in the interfaces file, it takes my board about 77 seconds to boot. I can reduce that time to 11 seconds by making the following changes:
1) disable auto for eth0. ie change in /etc/network/interfaces "auto eth0" to "#auto eth0" 2) add the line "ifup eth0;" to /etc/rc.local. With these changes, I consistently get boot times in the 10 to 11 second range and eth0 gets its ip address from a dhcp server. frank agius -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
