[Buildroot] RTNETLINK error

Hello,

 

I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out why I am getting this
error:

 

Sending DHCP requests ., OK

IP-Config: Got DHCP answer from 0.0.0.0, my address is 10.49.211.5

IP-Config: Complete:

     device=eth0, addr=10.49.211.5, mask=255.255.240.0,
gw=10.49.223.254,

     host=10.49.211.5, domain=appsig.com, nis-domain=appsig.com,

     bootserver=0.0.0.0, rootserver=0.0.0.0, rootpath=

Freeing unused kernel memory: 932k init

Initializing random number generator... done.

Starting network...

ip: RTNETLINK answers: File exists

 

And then it hangs.  I looked through the inittab -> rcS -> S40network to
find that it is coming from the ifup call (on the loopback interface?).


I have seen some stuff that "explains" the problem, but I am still at a
loss.

Any insight or help would be great!
