Hello,
I have this old but useful Dell L400 running 5.4.
Today I was going to try -current and, to my utter surprise, while running
bsd.rd install, the xl0 interface couldn't receive any DHCPOFFER from the
dhcp server (while on the server the DHCPDISCOVER arrives, same as openbsd
console). I double checked the server config, tried on a stupid router,
still the same problem. All other devices which I attach are working.
Running manually dhclient from 5.4 works.
So I tried 5.6 bsd.rd: the same problem. 5.5 bsd.rd: same problem. 5.4
bsd.rd: IT WORKS! (so no NIC failure)
It looks like that there was some regression between 5.4 and 5.5 that
caused this dhclient misbehaviour.
Here follows dmesg, thanks.
