After upgrading to lenny from etch I noticed my second netwrok adapter
fails to restart when running the /etc/init.d/network script.
I have two NICs installed. Both are supported and work correctly. The
issue is the following:
moya:~# /etc/init.d/networking restart
Reconfiguring network interfaces...SIOCSIFHWADDR: Device or resource
busy - you may need to down the interface
Failed to bring up eth2.
done.

I don't know why this occurs but it's really annoying.
