== General Configuration ==
Wired network doesn't work perfectly by default. MTU need to be set to 1492 instead of the default 1500 to work. I don't know why. This problem happens with systemresc cd, Ubuntu and every Linux distribution I tried.

{{FileBox|filename=/etc/conf.d/net|title=Wired Network|1=
mtu_eth0="1492"
}}
You have to create the {{Path|/etc/init.d/net.eth0}} symlink to {{Path|/etc/init.d/net.lo}} and start it at boot by:
{{RootCmd|rc-update add net.eth0 default}}

You don't really need to add it to the default boot level, because net.eth0 is started by hotplug by default. But I noticed that if I use dracut to boot the system, the ip is fine, but the settings in {{Path|/etc/conf.d/net}} are ignored!

=== Sound ===
The audio hardware is supported by the Intel HD Audio drivers:
