Indeed, that solved the issue. > Do you know if these lines were added by the system, or if you set them up manually at some earlier point? Hard to say, the system was dist-upgraded several times, so it might be obsolete setting, or maybe I've put those to workaround some networking bug long time ago. The lines were there for as long as I can remember. The eth number mismatch is most likely caused by motherboard upgrade, the previous one had only one ethernet port, current one has two. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/900903 Title: "Waiting for network configuration" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/900903/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
