I've uploaded new iso images fixing a bug related to the last change in simple-netaid for
compatibility with static ip addresses, that involved the response to routing table netlink
events triggered by other processes. The images come with vdev by default. Next step will be
to write a runit script for ifupdown that intend to solve the problem of the still remaining
(at least booting with vdev) long delayed boot time when using "allow-hotplug <interface>"
stanzas in /etc/network/interfaces.

The sources of the live-sdk have been updated as well.

Cheers,

Aitor.
