Thanks! I have a similar problem running stable using pcmcia and DHCP. I have the following in relevent files in /etc/rcS.d. S35mountall.sh S39dns-clean S40hostname.sh S40networking S40pump
In /etc/rc0.d S35networking In /etc/rc1.d S20single In /etc/rc2.d S11pcmcia S14ppp S20inetd S50netatalk Netatalk fails but pump must keep working as eventually eth0 comes up but usually after the boot is complete and I have GDM running. I thought I understood runlevels but now I'm not so sure. Any help for Debian runlevel explanation would be appreciated. In inittab I shows run level two as default so does it go S,1,2 and why is S35networking in rc0? Should I move dnsclean down towards 35 and insert pcmcia afterwords? If I move the pcmcia up to S then do I also need to make sure that the K scripts make sense as well. Is there a simple way to think of it. Thanks, Eric :-)
