Just wondered if anybody else is having this problem in debian unstable now. It doesn't look like a charter cable problem. when I boot up, my computer gets to the point where it announces that it is using the old ip address and gives the ip address, and then it just sits there and won't boot any further. So I've taken auto eth0 out of my /etc/network/interfaces. One I am logged in, I can run dhcpcd manually just fine, except that when I do this I see the info for the ethernet card going past, then my root command prompt, then the info about the ip address, and then I have to hit enter to get back to my command line prompt. so I wonder if that's what the program is doing when I try to do it from bootup--waiting for an "enter" that will never come. I am booting into console, not X, just so you have the whole picture. I haven't seen any other complaints about this; one thing I could try is using pump to see whether the problem is with the ipup-ipdown packaging or the dhcpcd package. I do know that ifupdown has been in the list of upgraded packages several times lately. Just would like to know if others have had this difficulty on unstable recently and if there's a fix for it I can do on my machine. Thanks.
