This is a followup to earlier traffic, shown below.
My problem now seems to be the DHCP daemon wants to activate before the PCMCIA card is available, so it cannot find interface eth0. Running dhcpd at the command line promptly fires it up, and activates the interface, and begins serving IP addresses.
DHCPD is started at S30 in rc2.d, so normally one would assume there was sufficient time to start the interface (done in S13). Unfortunately this is not always true. I wrote a script which waits for all interfaces defined for shorewall to come up or a certain timeout to not lock your entire system. It is run at S40, too late for your purposes but can easily be adapted.
You can find it at
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/leaf/devel/etitl/bering/etc/init.d/assert
install it as /etc/init.d/assert, you have to change the RCDLINKS line to something more apropriate like
RCDLINKS="2,S30 3,S30 6,K30"
Do not forget to back /etc up and restart your LEAF router
