First off, we have 100% control over the "root" and "gentoo"
environments on the release media.  You want a function called dhcpcd
that runs with -I on the LiveCD?  We can add that to root's .bashrc
easily on the CD.  It also wouldn't populate into the installed
environment, since we don't copy root's .bashrc as our default is to not
have one.
