Description of problem: I've got one network card and I have setup network bridge there. With latest initscripts I'm not able to start it. Messages like "peth0 device doesn't exists" will be seen. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): initscripts-8.61-1 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: See attached configuration Actual results: doesn't work Expected results: works fine Additional info: downgrade to initscripts-8.60-1 fixes problem for me

Interesting. There's nothing obvious in the changelog that would affect that.
There's changes between 8.60 and 8.61 in both ifup-eth and ifdown-eth ; does reverting either (or both) of these solve it?
This is pretty interesting problem. I've installed 8.61 and rebooted. Message "Device peth0 does not seem to be present, delaying initialization." was printed and network wasn't started. When I use ifup-eth from 8.60 (all other was from 8.61) network is started as expected. But when I downgraded to 8.60 and update to 8.61 problem is not reproducable!. All steps written above was done without reboot. When you reboot now you will see problem again. I'm not sure what's going on
Is known any workaround with initscripts >= 8.61-1? What is correct way to setup bridge with newest initscripts?
Hm, a test bridge worked for me fine. Is the ethernet device actually named peth0 beforehand?
(In reply to comment #7) > Hm, a test bridge worked for me fine. Is the ethernet device actually named > peth0 beforehand? Device was named eth0 so this was main problem. I'm not sure why such broken configuration worked long time ago and now it causes problems. I fixed my configuration and now it works as expected. Thanks for your hint, closing
