| You may want to try posting your question to the Installing Gentoo or General Gentoo forum, wish I could answer your question. Good luck on getting some help! |

moving this to ATG.

Unless he somehow blasted /etc/conf.d/net while updating config files. I'm not sure how that would happen, mind you... |
