Hi Ronald,
As we have now moved initscripts to use iproute2, rather than the ancient net-tools, a minor issue cropped up. For users who have /usr on a separate partition, we need to start the loopback device before /usr is mounted. This obviously won't work when ip is in /usr/sbin/. What is your take on this? Would you be happy to copy (or move + symlink) ip to /sbin? The alternative is to say that we do not support such setups (a case could be made for this, as many things out of our control are bound to break), but I'm not too keen on breaking people's boots if we can help it...
It is actually fairly standard for ip to be in /sbin, so it seems reasonable just to move it. Allan
