Looks good for me. I don't use profiles nor wireless network though. :-P
Sure :)
I wonder about this line on wiki: "Verbosity is controlled by an option in /usr/lib/netcfg/conf." Why have this conf file in /usr?
Well, I suppose it's misleadingly named. It's not really a config file, more somewhere where I define paths, like where profiles are, and where states are. I put the verbosity control in there for lack of any other place as it's most likely only going to be needed for - debugging issues in the scripts - people who want *totally* silent startup (no explanation of a fail) - people who are having trouble with configuration/network
Maybe I'll move verbosity to it's own config file in /etc/conf.d/netcfg, and merge the above netcfg/conf to netcfg/functions?
OK, thanks for explanation. I'd say move that setting to /etc if that won't complicate things.
Also, is wireless possible without /usr mounted?
No, and never has been, wireless_tools and wpa_supplicant are in /usr. The network scripts have always run in the daemons line, and these do to, so they have always run after /usr is mounted.
OK, that's what I expected. :-) -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)
