Shutdown Order Problems w/ Diskless Root on AoE [solved]

[travlr]

Hi all.

How do I change the shutdown order so that shutdown does not hang, due to the diskless nature of a root file system on AoE?

I just got my diskless clients working with '/' being mounted over AoE during the boot process.. but now I'm trying to fix the init system's shutdown order.. where the net interface is evidently being shutdown prior to all other services being shutdown which causes the shutdown to hang.

I'm studying the situation atm, but a little help from anyone would certainly be appreciated.

I haven't addressed this yet.

Anybody care to point in the direction of changing the shutdown runlevel's order.. so that my ethernet interface stays up till the very last moment?

Thank you

You have two options.
Take control over the network entirely out of the hands of the init script
