They are not terribly long or complex scripts. Put in a few echo statements to debug. network calls ifup. ifup should call dhcpcd. Also, I think I told you the wrong thing before. Now that eth0 is being recognized, the config file needs to be ifconfig.eth0. The network script should probably be changed to: start) # Start all network interfaces for file in /etc/sysconfig/ifconfig.* do interface=${file##*/ifconfig.} # Skip if $file is * (because nothing was found) if [ "${interface}" = "*" ]; then continue; fi . /etc/sysconfig/ifconfig.$interface /sbin/ifup ${IFACE} done ;; But that's for after 7.5 is released. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
