### Bridge configuration failures

If you get the following error while trying to bring up the bridge:

    root@chi-node-02:~# ifup br0
    add bridge failed: Package not installed
    run-parts: /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/bridge exited with return code 1
    ifup: failed to bring up br0

... it might be the bridge cannot find a way to load the kernel
module, because kernel module loading has been disabled. Reboot with
the `/etc/no_modules_disabled` file present:

    touch /etc/no_modules_disabled
    reboot

It might be that the machine took too long to boot because it's not in
mandos and the operator took too long to enter the LUKS
passphrase. Re-enable the machine with this command on mandos:

    mandos-ctl --enable chi-node-02.torproject
