When PXE installing on a VMware Workstation using the VMware DHCP server plus
Serva as proxyDHCP the bug is not present.
When PXE installing on a real PC with a Netgear ISP router as DHCP plus Serva
as proxyDHCP the bug is present.
In the first case the VMware DHCP module ignores the bad conform
Package: klibc-utils
Version: 2.0.1-3.1
Attempting to PXE boot
IP-Config: fails to get DHCP configuration with "some" DHCP servers
I think I have found/solved this bug;
The problem is located at ipconfig (klibc-utils) not
implementing the DHCP standard as it should at the file
/klibc
Package: n/a
Version: n/a
When installing i.e.
debian-live-6.0.6-i386-gnome-desktop.iso
debian-live-6.0.6-amd64-gnome-desktop.iso
etc...
/live/initrd.img does not include CIFS support
CIFS is very handy when PXE booting Debian live from Windows OSs as Serva does
it here.
