Sorry for replying to my own thread but, I've found where the problem
starts.
Does anyone know where $carrier_IFACE gets set? is it set by the kernel?
I've done a grep of the etc dir, and nothing in there sets this flag...
# Check that the interface has a carrier
if [ "${carrier_IFACE}" = "running" ]
then
/sbin/dhcpcd ${dhcpcd_IFACE} ${IFACE} >/dev/null || {
retval=$?
eend ${retval} "Failed to bring
${IFACE} up"
return ${retval}
}
else
eend 1 "${IFACE} is not plugged in or has no
carrier signal"
