This way we in the GDP can take care of keeping the guide up-to-date. Thanks. > I've just updated the system and it installed openrc-0.5.1. After reboot I have noticed that none of my network interfaces were configured ( lo,eth0). If it wasn't for this mail, it'd take a headache or two to figure out that init. script is new. But I still don't have a clue how to use it. I have started it, but it dd not seem to do anything. I thought that it would probably take settings from /etc/conf.d/net, but that doesn't seem to be the case, ande there is no other config in sight. Also, neither on gentoo.org or on roy.maples.name seem to be anything resembling documentation... Branko
