Bootup freezes when wireless network is out of range.

[tvicker]

Freespire freezes during bootup (about 20% progress bar) when I'm not within range of my Wifi network. This also happens with Linspire 5v2. It's a ThinkPad X40 with an Atheros PCI Wifi card.

Booting in "Diagnostics" mode shows the following when it freezes:

Could not find the ip/netmask for ath0
run-parts: /etc/network/if-up.d/999firewall exited with return code 2
snd-seq

Any suggestions? When I'm at home (within wange of my router) it boots up just fine and everything works perfectly.

:confused:

Try going to the wireless icon in the corner, right click on it, and select automatically switch profiles before you leave, maybe?:confused: Just a thought.

**Bump** - Has anyone figured this out or seen this before? I'm about to wipe out my FreeSpire partition, but I thought I'd give this another look before I do. Thanks for looking!

Thanks for looking!Guessing this is happening with FS 1.0.13 (hopefully a new FS 2.0 Alpha will be available soon to possibly resolve this)???
