Hi,

This is in reply to a spate of questions regarding DHCP on pico.

DHCP will work, but the files need a lot of tweaking in order to get it
to work. I did manage a working floppy, but the following things need to

be done:
rc.network needs to have code added to the ifconfig section to parse for

DHCP in the ifconfig parms and run dhclient.
dhclient does not see /etc/dhclient script which also does not have
execute permissions and rc.conf needs a line for
dhcp_program="/sbin/dhclient"
Oh yes, crunch.conf needs dhclient added to the build list.
This copy was done on 3-Stable because it's easier to debug and has more

room to play, but as soon as 4-Stable settles down, I will try it there
as well.
Cheers,

Norm Audet
