Package: hotplug Version: 0.0.20040329-16 Severity: normal
Hi, I was just trying to figure out why my notebook hangs when booting with the WLAN card inserted. I finally found the problem: The reason is that /etc/rcS.d/S40hotplug is executed before /etc/rcS.d/S40networking. hotplug detects the presence of the network card and runs ifup for that device. ifup runs some if-pre-up and if-up scripts. Some of the programs make use of the loopback device 127.0.0.1. Unfortunately, at this time S40networking has not yet been run and therefore the lo device is not yet up. 127.0.0.1 is not reachable at this time. regards Hadmut -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.9-danisch-p4-intel Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=de_DE (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages hotplug depends on: ii debconf 1.4.39 Debian configuration management sy ii grep 2.5.1.ds1-3.2 GNU grep, egrep and fgrep ii module-init-tools 3.1-pre6-1 tools for managing Linux kernel mo ii modutils 2.4.26-1.1 Linux module utilities ii procps 1:3.2.3-1 The /proc file system utilities -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
