[gentoo-user] net.eth0 error

[Zbynek Houska]

Hello,

since yesterday I am getting such strange message at boot:


localhost ~ # /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start
 * Caching service dependencies ...
[ ok ] * Starting eth0
/etc/init.d/net.eth0: line 683: interface_variable: command not found
 *   Cannot default to dhcp as there is no dhcp module loaded
 *   No configuration for eth0
[ !! ]

and

localhost ~ # /etc/init.d/net.lo start
 * Starting lo
 *   Bringing up lo ...
/etc/init.d/net.lo: line 664: interface_loopback_create: command not fou
[ !! ]

my /etc/conf.d/net contains following:

config_eth0=( "192.168.0.3 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast
192.168.0.255" )
routes_eth0=(
        "default via 192.168.0.1"
)

Could someone tell me where problem might be?

Have you upgraded baselayout recently?
Did you do etc-update afterwards?
Do you have iproute2 installed?

If you did all above, then change /etc/conf.d/net
to following:

modules=( "iproute2" )
config_eth0=( "192.168.0.3/24 brd 192.168.0.255" )
routes_eth0=( "default via 192.168.0.1" )

well, I omited to add that system was undergoing emerge -uD system, so I
figured out that culprit was me by not updating config files using
etc-update.
