The problem is not with the kernel/motherboard combination but with the world/motherboard combination. 8.3-R p8 with the 8.3R p8 world works fine. 8.4-Prerelease (what I get using cvsup "8_4") works fine. 8.3R p8 with the 8.4 Pre world has DHCP problems (see example below) 8.4 Pre with the 8.4 Pre world has the same problems. I'm currently running 8.3R p8 while trying to get the backup 1U to work, having problems with booting (8.4 RC3 installs fine).

The suggestion to use "synchronous_dhclient="YEs"" did not help. I'll be trying fixed IP briefly this afternoon. Mike Squires mikes@siralan.org UNI*X at home since 1986
