Right. This is static configuration. No dhcp. > If I use > > dhcpcd_eth0="-s <IPaddress>" > > dhcpcd hangs. > Any hints? Hm. Information from net.example, expressed in other words: First select what dhcp client you are going to use by adding one of # dhclient: emerge net-misc/dhcp # dhcpcd: emerge net-misc/dhcpcd # pump: emerge net-misc/pump # udhcpc: emerge net-misc/udhcp in modules. Fex 1. modules=( "dhcpcd" ) Now. Tell that you are going to use dhcp on eth0 2. config_eth0=( "dhcp" ) And then add custom configuration options module_eth0="custom_options" Fex 3. dhcpcd_eth0="-s 123.123.123.123" BTW. What version of baselayout do you have? Peter.
