Hi,

My "/etc/conf.d/net" says:

config_eth0=( "dhcp" )
fallback_eth0=( "192.168.3.3/24" )
fallback_route_eth0=( "default via 192.168.3.1" )

But dhcpcd is ignoring this. Instead it is using
"/var/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-eth0.info" to set eth0. This looks like the '-E'
option is used, but where? How can I make my fallback configuration
effective?

Thanks,
jules
