It's the Angstrom standard configuration containing e.g.
# Wired or wireless interfaces
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
iface eth1 inet dhcp
But i'm not sure what this part means (especially what means 'auto'
here. Where can i found some documentation about the content of this
config file. The busybox and ifup/ifdown manpages are not very helpful
here. :(
And another problem is the mentioned naming. If every connected
USB-NIC gets a new name i cannot refer to it in this config file.
