DHCP slows down boot time - using wifi
I have a basic network setup which does not use a static ip address, I guess that was automatically assigning via DHCP. It slows down my boot time as it tries to detect DHCP which doesn't exists at boot time since I setup NetworkManager for wifi.
Can I get rid of that DHCP lookup process without losing the ability to use DHCP with plugged in to a LAN? TIA |
Have you tried NetworkManager?

It seems like you're talking about rc.inet1 starting up. You can do two things:
1. Comment the rc.inet1 section in rc.M: Code:
# Initialize the networking hardware Code:
# chmod -x /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 |
Edit /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf and make sure you don't have any interfaces configured.
Probably somewhere you have USE_DHCP[n]="yes" They should all look like this if you're using networkmanager: Code:
# Config information for eth0: |
Hi,
Sorry I missed revisiting my own thread :D. Yes, I'm using NetworkManager currently. Its just that I want to cut the boot time delay caused by this DHCP thing. I'll just try disabling rc.inet1 and see if it improves and still working. Thanks |
I disabled /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 and so far, it speeds boot time a bit due to few seconds saved for without looking up DHCP.
Thanks |
