I don't think this is the same is in my case, I have been sitting around
redoing the dhcp request quite a lot of times trying to figure out what
the heck is happening having a tcpdump session open at the server. Please
not that I don't see any dhcpack comming from the client to the server.
When I tried to use the mandrake 6.0 bootnet disk I got a warning message
saying something like "install uses obsolete /proc/pci interface"
In my case the host is registred in the dns and afaik the reverse lookup
works when specifying a static ip-adress.
