I would like to add some more information that might be helpful: After installing the latest unstable ifupdown 0.6.5 this morning my hotplugged devices won't start at boot time anymore. Even though it is possible to start the interface from the console:
orthanc ~ # ifup -vvv eth0=hotplug Running mapping script grep on hotplug Configuring interface eth0=eth0 (inet) run-parts -verbose /etc/network/if-pre-up.d run-parts: executing /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/wireless-tools dhclient3 -pf /var/run/dhclient.eth0.pid -lf /var/run/dhclient.eth0.leases eth0 Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Client V3.0.1 All rights reserved.
