Banana M2+ networking issue (dhclient)

[Alexander Vasilenko]

Hello, everybody!

Today I've got very interesting behavior during debian8-3.4.112 startup.

 

If the network cable is plugged in - everything is ok. dhclient starting correctly with an ip address obtained from dhcp server.

BUT! If the board started with unolugged network cable, dhclient do not start.

Moreover, if I try to connect network cable when the system is up and running,

dhclient is never start and network is unreachable respectively.

 

Does somebody knows how to solve this problem?\

Thanx a lot!

Well, parallelizing boot script or making it dependant of network is a bad idee, because it tends to make it unpredictable. Especially when some init process depends on clock and the RTC dont keep time if you unplug power supply ...
