The problem is clear. No networking when udev attempts to configure devices with certain ownerships presumably
and yet the startup scripts to setup networking come after the udev ones:

 find /etc/rc?.d -type l -ls|egrep '(udev|networking)'
3646856 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Nov 15 2006 /etc/rcS.d/S10udev -> ../init.d/udev
3646868 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Nov 15 2006 /etc/rcS.d/S40networking -> ../init.d/networking
3647204 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Feb 11 14:59 /etc/rcS.d/S37udev-finish -> ../init.d/udev-finish

guess what udev starts up before networking....and it finishes before networking starts. As an initial fix
please reorder these?

Even doing this:

files ldap [UNAVAIL=return]

does not work. Strangely enough if I first go into rescue mode and then let it resume it works?? Perhaps enough
time has gone by?
