Basically, there is a good 10-15 sec delay when Arch boots when it gets to my network. The boot screen literally says something like' Network... [BUSY]' for that time period before giving the OK or READY signal. Is there a way I can background a boot event such as the eth1 coming up or is this a configuration issue?
Thanks!

you can add a @ before it in the DAEMONS array to background it. However, if you also start mpd in your DAEMONS array, it will be a problem because mpd needs network to be up and running. I don't use mpd and even when I did, I never started it in my DAEMONS, so I have always had network backgrounded.
In fact, I background everything except syslog-ng

There's no such thing as a stupid question, but there sure are a lot of inquisitive idiots !

Well mpd should not be a problem if you bind it only to the lo interface (localhost), since that's started long before network in the initscripts.
But if you have pretty much any service that needs network to start, you shouldn't background it. Otherwise go for it.

That is true. You can change that in the .mpdconf. Thanks bender.
Of course that means that you won't be able to use mpd over the network then through a different machine. But if you use mpd only from the local machine, then it wouldn't be a problem. Although, if you are gonna use it only locally, I would much rather prefer a lighter alternative like cplay.
