Abs and DHCP problems
Hi. I installed arch linux and compiled my kernel from source, the traditional way. I like to compile every piece of software in my linux, so I got quite interested in ABS, once it allows me to not just compile stuff, but create custom packages based on my own compilations for later installation. This is awesome, however when I run makepkg, it gives me some dependencies problem. So I tried makepkg -b, to try to build de needed dependencies and it says:
"ERROR, no "warning" under /var/abs" and then fails building dependencies. Being "warning" the first dependencie needed in the list. Is there a workaround to this?
The dhcp issue is: I have eth0 receiving an IP directly from my ISP. No complains, the internet connections is working. The problem is it takes 10 to 15 seconds in "Starting Network [BUSY]" and only then it continues with the boot. My IP addres rarely change, and in WIndows XP it doesn´t take any time to resolve de DHCP address. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Prefix the network daemon with a '@' in /etc/rc.conf.
