Perhaps a clue,

I made a null-modem cable and captured the boot sequence.
With all 3 eths connected to switches (to make link appear).
The boot-up shows:

===========================SNIP=================================
Setting kernel variables ...
net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter = 1
net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter = 1
... done.
Mounting local file systems...
Configuring network interfaces: Error: either "local" is duplicate, or 
"/24" is a garbage.
eth0: link up.
eth0: Setting full-duplex based on negotiated link capability.
RTNETLINK answers: Network is unreachable
eth1: link up.
eth1: Setting full-duplex based on negotiated link capability.
eth2: link up.
eth2: Setting full-duplex based on negotiated link capability.
done.
==========================SNIP==================================
And (on the leaf box via ssh):
ip a
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP> mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue
     link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
     inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
2: dummy0: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop
     link/ether 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
3: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000
     link/ether 00:0d:b9:00:d9:64 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
4: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000
     link/ether 00:0d:b9:00:d9:65 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
     inet 192.168.42.254/24 brd 192.168.42.255 scope global eth1
5: eth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000
     link/ether 00:0d:b9:00:d9:66 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
     inet 172.21.42.254/24 brd 172.21.42.255 scope global eth2

I don't know where the error message originates, but it seems to point 
at misconfiguration of eth0 (i.e. my problem).
What are the minimum packages I must load to get a running box that 
routes (no shorewall, iptables etc)?
Maybe I can start there and add packages?

Cheers,

Bob
