Betreff: [flashboot] dhclient would not work if cable is disconnected ordhcp
server is unavailable during boot


Hi.

I''m running flashboot 4.1 on a Soekris 4801-50.

sis0 is configured with dhcp and it work if the interface is connected during
boot. If the interface is disconnected during boot the interface will never
recover after I connect it.

I tried to configure dhclient to retry in dhclient.conf but without positive
result.

I have also tried to manually start dhclient in rc.more but dhclient terminates
without retrying any further.

Is there any way to get dhclient keep running so I can connect the wire after
boot and make dhcp work without reboot?

Best Regards rancor
