Installed cooker this morning :
* default dhcp client (dhcpclient)
* first boot, added DHCP_TIMEOUT=5 in /etc/sysconfig/network
* ifdown/ifup eth0
* file /etc/dhclient-eth0.conf with 'timeout 5' inside was created
So I can say that DHCP_TIMEOUT is taken in account by scripts.
- If your problem is unplugged cable at boot, why don't you try ifplugd ?
You won't wait at all !
- Otherwise disable zeroconf(zcip/tmdns), if you don't want it, and you won't
wait much more than DHCP_TIMEOUT value.

description:
Set the timeout setting to something lower than 30-45 seconds per interface by
adding DHCP_TIMEOUT=5 in the /etc/sysconfig/network section. Does not affect
the timeout.
Also request to have the option added to DrakConnect.
