SubjectRe: 2.2 / 2.4 ethernet detection order
I had the same problem on a RedHat 6.2 distro.
on 2.4 Ifup for dhcp card fails if done after ifup for static ip.
The problem comes from the pump package.
Using dhcpcd instead of pump fixed the problem completely.

kind regards,
Harm

before my

more
.obtain an ip from the dhcp server).
