I'm starting two interfaces, one that uses dhcpcd and one that does not. Both fail to start in the default runlevel until they are hotplugged later. I do have dhcpcd built with USE=udev. The string "udev" does not occur in /etc/init.d/net.lo so maybe that's the problem? Please confirm that I should file a Gentoo bug for this. - Grant
