Guest Raistlin84 Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 Hi,this is my first post. I need some help to decrease the time to boot on Mandriva LE 2005....well on my laptop i've eth0 e wlan0 network interfaces,but at boot,as you can image,it take too much time to start if the cable is not plugged or the wireless is not present. My ideas to resolve this trouble is to put the two process of bringing up the two devices in background,so my O.S. can try to resolve the IP via dhcpd without hang. Well,my question is: what is the file that i must change? I think is necessary add & after the command. EX: ifconfig eth0 up &. THX! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qchem Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 If you're obtaining the IP addresses via dhcp it's probably best just to reduce the dhcp timeout limit for these interfaces. If you background the network-up scripts it could cause problems with other services. The file you need to edit is probably in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ but as I'm not at a mandriva box at the moment I can't check.
