well, the NEW_DEVICE code i wrote was merely a way so that when it hits:
. /tmp/net-${DEVICE}.conf
it's actually sourcing the right file... though maybe we could just do
something like:
. /tmp/net-*.conf
some risk of getting some other device that way, even though *usually*
there will only be one...
alternately, maybe we could get ipconfig to write to a different
filename that doesn't include the device in it?

not only complexity, but using shell parameter expansion instead of cut
is definitely prone to error, too. so we should avoid it when possible

yes, it works quite well, although i still think it needs a call to
"sleep" to slow down the retry attempts(especially when not using dhcp
to configure).
overall, the nfsroot support is looking pretty good now.
live well,
