Actually, I did have problems sometime back, which prompted this
question.

I get a little anal about code for which I'm responsible to maintain. 
So, as a matter of course, I usually alphabetize lists, the order of
which does not matter.

Having done this in syslinux.cfg, I was surprised when things did *not*
work!

I found that, in LRP-CD, ``local'' must precede ``dhcpd'' or surprising
results obtain.

I left it at that, never pursuing the root cause, and assumed that
sometimes sequence in syslinux.cfg is critical -- hence the question . .

Dare to fix things before they break . . .

Our capacity for understanding is inversely proportional to how much we
think we know.  The more I know, the more I know I don't know . . .
