I have an nslu2 with a 3g modem attached which auto dials on boot however if I boot with the ethernet cable detatched it doesn't dial nor does the slug boot properly (the status light blick orange/green). If I then plug in the lan cable the status light goes to solid green and I can login via ssh. I assume the os is halting on the lan configuration bit, any ideas on how I get round this? dmesg shows eth0: link down NET: Registered protocol family 10 lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready eth0: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex, lpa 0xCDE1 ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth0: link becomes ready interface file shows # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # The primary network interface allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet static |
