I apologize for not having the text of this thread. My hosting company blew away my email and the list unsubscribed me.
I tried the modules_eth1=("ifconfig" "iwconfig" "dhcpcd") in the /etc/conf.d/net
file. There is no change. The same thing happens.
Following is the messages in /var/log/messages after trying it. The one good
thing this tells me is that the process is reading the net file.
