1. Boot into runlevel 1
2. Edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0, and change NM_CONTROLLED=yes to NM_CONTROLLED=no
3. /etc/init.d/networking restart
4. ifconfig

(no output)

5. ifconfig -a

(no output)

6. ping 1.2.3.4

(I get output)

7. ip addr

(no output)

Something is going wrong here... same as if I run with ifup eth0
Comment 1 Jiri Popelka 2010-07-13 12:12:46 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:

1. telinit 1

2. 'ip a' or 'ifconfig -a'
(no output)

3. setenforce 0

4. 'ip a' or 'ifconfig -a'
(work as expected)
Comment 2 Daniel Walsh 2010-07-13 12:31:36 UTC 
This is a known problem, which we are changing by forcing the running of sulogin.

If you execute sulogin, the terminals will work correctly.

Or you can do a little trick by executing

ip a | cat
Comment 3 Bill Nottingham 2010-07-13 16:32:03 UTC 
Actually, we're not forcing sulogin, but we're putting another command in between so policy can work.
