Greetings,

I've got a Dell Latitude C400 with mandrake 9.0.

There is:
1. Inboard Ethernet (always present)
2. Dock Ethernet (present only when docked)
3. Wireless Ethernet PC Card (present only when inserted -- could be either
docked or undocked.

When I installed the system, eth0 was the internal interface, eth1 was the
dock, and wireless was added later, showing up as eth2.

Now, when I try to book undocked, the system freezes trying to bring up
eth1, which, I'm assuming, means it is looking for the Dock Ethernet, which
isn't there.  I need to power down, or CTRL-ALT-DEL to get out of the
situation.

Is there a way to make the system understand that the interfaces may or may
not be present, or at the very least, not to hang when not docked?



Thanks,

John
