had this issue with 3.3 and again with 3.4
Install to hard drive (the debian way) use netcardconfig to set a static IP, everything is fine, reboot....have to reset netcardconfig to my static IP, now... it remembers the settings but I still have to run it to get online...
how can I fix this?
All your settings are probably remembered (you can check resolv.conf, ifconfig -a, etc.). You may only need to run "ifup eth0" or "sudo ifup eth0" or whatever your interface is named.
And that should fix the problem with the loss of settings after a reboot?
Have you seen this:

Pump seems to have been the culprit there. You can disable it with "update-rc.d -f pump remove" as well as editing the file mentioned in the link.
Make note of the Snumber first (cat /etc/init.d) if you need it back, although defaults might work.
Be warned though that I use dhcp so I don't really know if removing pump borks your network, but as said, you can allways put it back.
There's also something in the faq which could help:

Right. Especially (cat /etc/init.d) was ingenious :)
