Casper folks:

I am setting up a netboot system for our ~16 ROACH boards. I had
things working until I attempted to edit /etc/network/interfaces to
enable eth0 to use DHCP. My testing to this point had been over the
serial port. As soon as the DHCP client makes a request, the NFS
connection breaks and I get:

nfs: server 10.5.5.32 not responding, still trying

This is, of course, after netboot makes some initial DHCP requests as
part of the BOOTP / TFTP dancing. All that works and it can boot
successfully if I do not enable eth0 as part of boot-up.

How do I enable eth0 to use DHCP without breaking the NFS connection
that allows the ROACH to continue seeing the exported filesystem?

Tom
