[Bug 900903] Re: "Waiting for network configuration"

[Adam Porter]

$ ls -ld /var/run
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2012-01-07 20:12 /var/run -> /run

The /var/run->/run transition happened correctly when I upgraded.

This happened on my laptop which is not plugged into an Ethernet
connection but uses wireless.

After commenting out these lines:

#auto eth0
#iface eth0 inet dhcp

...it booted.  I noticed after logging in that NetworkManager had
forgotten all of my previously-used wireless networks--another bug,
perhaps related?  IIRC, before the upgrade I had my default wireless
connection set as a system connection in NM.
