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.
