Re: [CentOS-docs] Emulate a fixed IP address using MAC address with DHCP
Nice Tips! A comment about dhcp server info. To get the dhcp lease info from a dhclient, that info is stored in dhclient.leases. The router/dhcp server info described in section Home router with DHCP and DNS could be made more generic by changing the heading and the context. Heading example How to find out the IP address to the dhcp server. Better suggestion, it sounds bad in my ears And then describe how to find dhclient.leases and how to find out what IP address the dhcp server has and perhaps a bash script or a grep/awk command example?.

Normally is the installation and grub tweaks covered, and noting after that! So my idea is to take it to the next step and collect stuff the will enhance the work experience in dual boot and to get people to easily migrate/shift between two different OS without thinking its a hassle!
