loopback device not started
Hi all!
I recently installed knoppix 3.9 on my girl friend`s laptop (debian like installation) and found the following
problem.
KDE starts really slow if the pcmcia network card is connected to our router.
After some investigation I found out the loopback device is not started.
Starting it by invoking
ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
makes KDE work again.
As I am not used to debian I am not sure where I have to look to get the loopback device working
automatically.
It works well if the pcmcia card is not connected on startup.
Any help is appreciated.

This is a known issue with Knoppix 3.9 HD Installs in that it breaks networking. We have cautioned new users from installing Knoppix to the HD without first being aware that it might not work for them http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/Hd_Install_HowTo
The bug you are running into is documented as #15 http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/Bugs/3.9-2005-05-27 and can be resolved by entering the command as root user:
ln -s /etc/init.d/ifupdown-clean /etc/rcS.d/S18ifupdown-clean
