[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Dmd attempts to configure my network interface before the kernel
module even gets loaded.

Yesterday, there was a commit that tried to fix this problem by
starting udev before configuring the network, but in my case it
doesn't help.

I'm enclosing in this email my os definition, a dmesg log and a photo
of the problem (At the top you can see it trying to configure the
network, while at the bottom you can see e100, my network adapter's
driver, getting loaded).

Yes (that was 150d8e6, for the record.)

I was hoping that, by the time ‘udevadm trigger’ completes, all the
devices would have been detected, but obviously there’s no such
guarantee.

dmd will need something akin to ‘upstart-udev-bridge’
<http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#id278> to turn device
discovery/removal events into service start/stop triggers.

Until then you’ll have to restart the networking service manually.  :-/

Thanks for the report,
Ludo’.

Is this bug still relevant? Or can we close it?

Since no new complaints come in for more than four years, I am closing
the bug.
