- Why are you killing dhclient at the end?

I can see at least 2 reasons:
- dhclient coming from the initramfs is started on that FS and should
  not be running across the switch_root
- to give the possibility to the actual system being booted to use its
  own network configuration mechanism, be it also DHCP or something
  else
