That coincides with what I'm seeing...

I wonder if I couldn't just run /etc/init.d/dhclient again at the end..
Be easier than a delay I think.. Have to look and see if there's an
rc.local to play with... Thanks!

Sorry about that... It was one of them looonnnggg days (Not enough
caffiene after an all nighter)... /etc/modules won't help, as it's a
PCMCIA radio.. I did try moving it up in the list in syslinux.cfg, but..
I'm booting this from a flash drive, so there's hardly any time for
anything... I appreciate the reply, and I'll try re-running dhclient from
the last thing run (this is my second LEAF setup, so I'm still learning
it's innards)...
