I was wondering if that "Is the link up command" could be modified... I mean it sounds like we could create new networking devices on the

commands are done. Our current scripts would choke on that.
It already worked fine before, and then you changed it during your "simplification" stuff.
Before that was done, the ifup script tested the link and tried to bring it up before each service script in the directory was run. If the interface did not exist until after the second or third script executed, that was OK, because then it would be brought up and the next script run.
I don't think it works that way any longer, and that's one of the reasons I have not upgraded any of my systems to the new, improved, "simpler" bootscripts :-(
