I use an integrated NVIDIA nForce MCP77 networking adapter, but I have some problems when booting the system. When the network adapter is configured (from /etc/rc.d/netif), then the network is still down. Setting the computer's date/time fails, because it cannot resolve the NTP host and some other daemons fail as well.
When I add a sleep of 4 seconds after the network is started, then I can see that the network state becomes up and everything works fine. Is there a bug in the boot process or am I doing something wrong?
