Problem description: when I use vlan devices I must enshure that the vlandevices are configured last (after their parent ethernet or bond devices) and deconfigured first (before their parrent devices).
if this does not happen the system may hang when rebooting.
This seams not to be possible withe the ifup -a and ifdown -a commands because they will use the same order and not the reverse.
I have patched the /etc/init.d/networking as follows:
--- /etc/init.d/networking 2003-11-24 14:43:43.000000000 +0100
+++ /tmp/networking 2005-01-13 23:57:12.000000000 +0100

This rather is a hack ... It would be very cool if their would be a configuration option in the config file
like:
auto-up-order ^eth ^tr ^bond ^ppp ^vlan ^lo auto-down-order ^ppp ^vlan ^bond ^eth0$ ^eth2$ ^eth1$ ^eth ^tr ^lo
which would mach regexes or interface names
Thanks
