why not use udhcpc in the boot floppies ? it's really small. there was a few mails about that in september, 2001 ; and I can't remember major objections, except lack of testing for compatibility with misc. dhcp servers. if nobody wants/has the time to integrate udhcpc in boot floppies, well, I might just as well volunteer (but I am currently totally ignorant of the internal of boot floppies). sorry if that matter has been discuted again recently, but a quick google search yielded nothing new about it ...
