Hi, I do not know since when does this happen because I didn't need
a reboot for a while... anyway, It's recent.
The dhclient-script has a bug getting the kernel's majornumber.
On line 76 it states:
relmajor=`echo $relmajor | sed 's/^[0-9]*\.\([0-9]*\)\..*/\1/'`
where it should be:
relmajor=`echo $release | sed 's/^[0-9]*\.\([0-9]*\)\..*/\1/'`
Easy to solve, but it raises this bash errors:
/etc/dhclient-script: line 108: [: -lt: unary operator expected
/etc/dhclient-script: line 108: [: -eq: unary operator expected
Anyway it still works, so maybe is not _that_ bad...
Sebastià.
