Details

Description: After upgrading to netcfg 2.2.1 the network failed to come
up with an error 'No Connection' on boot. Once booted I would
'/etc/rc.d/net-profiles restart' and the network would come up. I added
this to /etc/rc.local until I had time to dig into it.

Today I was reading this thread:
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=79685

I changed the sleep value on line 22 to 2,5,10 and 60 with no result. I
removed v2.2.1 and installed v2.1.3 and it worked.


Additional info:
* package version(s)
v2.1.3

* config and/or log files etc.

# cat /etc/network.d/ethernet
CONNECTION="ethernet"
DESCRIPTION="A very basic ethernet profile, using dhcp"
INTERFACE=eth0
IP="dhcp"
DHCP_TIMEOUT=10
DHCLIENT="yes"


# lspci |grep ethernet
01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8053 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 22)

Which uses the 'sky2' module.
