Hi again Eduard,
We discussed this problem on -devel-french we have a proposition.

I verified this afternoon that dhclient does indeed behave in this

I'm trying to install potato on a new system and having no luck.
I burned an iso image of the 2.2.23 boot floppies.
I can get to "Install Operating System and Modules"

Hi,
The way I read this is that we should be able to make dhclient exit with an
error if it can't configure the interface. With that in mind I wrote the
included patch. I tested this on my system and it works like I want it to.
I verified that currently dhclient will exit with success if it can

Then we would probably need arch specific default partitioning strings.

Correct me if I ma wrong:
boot-floppies 3.0.15 works and 3.0.16 off people.debian.org didn't get
