Re: Networking loading on boot before PCMCIA services for network card
Asher Haig writes: I have a problem when my system boots where networking loads before the PCMCIA services that are needed to drive the network card.

The proper rc.* files are all there, as far as I can tell Look in the rc2.d directory. The links to the scripts in /etc/init.d have Snumber prepended to the name. They are executed in ascending order. Simply rename the PCMCIA link to a lower number so that it executes before S15netstd_init does. -- -= Sent by Debian 1.3 Linux =- Thomas Kocourek KD4CIK - member of ARRL @[EMAIL PROTECTED]@westgac3.dragon.com Remove @_@ for correct Email address --... ...-- ... -.. . -.- -.. - -.-. .. -.- -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

The proper rc.* files are all there, as far as I can tell It is simplest not to use /etc/init.d/network with a PCMCIA network card. I suggest that you put your network details in /etc/pcmcia/network.opts and that you trim them from /etc/init.d/network. Then your network will not start until you insert your network card. You might want to leave the loopback in /etc/init.d/network - like this: ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1 route add -net 127.0.0.0 For details on how to setup /etc/pcmcia/network.opts, see the PCMCIA faq. If you use your system on multiple networks, you can specify different schemes which make switching among them very simple.
