Hi, Eric,
I have to admit that I am a little bit paranoid. It _could_ be a
problem if some other components in Bering-uClibc expect ifupdown to
do this kind of checks internally.
In the ifupdown used in Bering-uClibc 1.0.x, there are several
functions and variables to ensure we're not downing an

I don't fully understand why this is a problem. I agree with you that
the error handling could be better but the interface is already
brought up and configured. By doing an "ifup lo" or "ifup eth0" you
try to enable an already enabled interface.
Doing an "ifdown lo" and "ifup lo" is
Hi, Luis,
