I usually press Ctl-C just because I'm impatient.  It makes the computer
skip that slow search for network interfaces.

However, sometimes the computer will end up with no 'lo' in 'ifconfig'.
~ So I run 'sudo ifup lo' to get it back.  It's needed by so many
programs that you don't want to run without it.

HTH,
Ed
