I just enabled ipv6 on my main computer, and activated radvd on the local LAN port. After that, as by magic, the ethernet card on my other properly configures itself with just a "ifconfig eth0 up", really cool.
However, I don't see what I should write in /etc/network/interfaces to make ifup eth0 just do a "ifconfig eth0 up", letting the autoconfiguring of ipv6 doing it's work.
You could use the 'manual' method (I think).
auto eth0 iface eth0 inet manual
I just put that in my interfaces file, but "ifup eth0" now doesn't configure the IPv6 part:
muso# ifconfig eth0 down
muso# ifup eth0
muso# ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:10:DC:33:8F:E1 inet addr:192.168.0.10 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

The IPv6 part should autoconfigured regardless, but this should bring your interface up.
apparently, it isn't. (also, 'ifdown eth0' doesn't bring the IPv6 part down, if it is up).
