So, there is some progress on this bug. A new event called 'static- network-up' was added to oneiric today, which will only be emitted once all 'auto' interfaces from /etc/network/interfaces are up.
The next step is to delay /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf until this event is emitted, and then also provide some kind of fail-safe for this event to be emitted when some of the interfaces cannot be brought up. ** Changed in: upstart (Ubuntu) Assignee: James Hunt (jamesodhunt) => Clint Byrum (clint-fewbar) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dhcp3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/580319 Title: init.d controlled services launch before all interfaces are up, thus failing to start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dhcp3/+bug/580319/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
