Subject: [gentoo-user] offline runlevel
Date: Wed, 15 Nov 2006 14:39:10 -0330	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <y65y7qcvayh.fsf@minnie.esd.mun.ca> (raw)

Hello,

I am following the runlevel guide
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=2&chap=4 
to set up an offline runlevel for my laptop.  I have in
/etc/runlevels/offline:

rmason # rc-update show offline
               acpid | offline 
            cpufreqd | offline 
                 gpm | offline 
               ivman | offline 
               local | offline 
              pcmcia | offline 
           syslog-ng | offline 
          vixie-cron | offline

Based on the ouput of <scriptname> ineed, nothing there needs
net.eth0.

When I boot into the kernel with this entry in grub.conf:

# For booting GNU/Linux
title  Gentoo Linux 2.6.17-gentoo-r8 (offline)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/kernel-2.6.17-gentoo-r8 root=/dev/sda3 softlevel=offline

the system still tries to start eth0 and then wastes time while dhcpd
times out.

I am not sure what what I have done wrong.  Can anyone help?

Thanks,
Roger Mason
