Re: nfe0 startup

2010-04-30 Thread Robert Jenssen
Hi,

Many thanks to those who responded to my question. It seems that waiting for 
the network to start up is a common problem. Recently Jeremy Chadwick proprosed 
adding a /usr/local/etc/rc.d/waitnetwork script. In response others have 
suggested the more radical step of replacing /etc/rc.d with launchd. See 
Message-ID  20100418213727.ga98...@icarus.home.lan etc. I will await 
developments.

Cheers,

Rob Jenssen

Hi,

I am using a mother board with a NVIDIA MCP9 network chip on an AMD64
