Hello!
I have updated my gentoo box by typing emerge --update world. This also
updated udev and now I don't get any network on startup. If I want to
get a network connection, I'll have to first delete
"/var/run/dhcpcd-eth0.pid" and then run 'dhcpcd eth0'.
On startup I get some udev related error messages:
>> Letting udev process events ...
>> udevd-event[668]: wait_for_sysfs: waiting for
'/sys/class/net/lo/device/driver' failed
>> udevd-event[1371]: wait_for_sysfs: waiting for
'/sys/class/net/eth1/device/driver' failed
>> Finalizing udev configuration ...
However when entering runlevel 3 and dhcpcd is being started it
successfully assigns an (correct) ip address to eth0. The only problem
is that the resolv.conf is then empty and so I get no network connection
at all. I didn't change any configuration files, I just updated udev.
My version of udev is 104 (latest stable version available) and ifconfig
eth0 tells me
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:15:C5:3A:EB:EB
inet addr:192.168.1.101 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

Please don't tell me to downgrade udev as I unfortunately don't know
which version was my previous merged version :-(.
Please let me know if you need any further informations regarding my system.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Best Regards Jay
