I posted about the same thing not too long ago: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/current-users/2014/12/13/msg026297.html My observation has been this only affects non-x86 diskless clients. If the diskless client is sparc{,64}, macppc, evbmips-mips64el (all I've tried lately), then I observe the same failure as reported here If the diskless client is i386 or amd64, configuration via 'dhcpcd' during startup works just fine. In my case, I use the "dhcp" keywork in the client's "/etc/ifconfig.if" file, so a similar hack will be needed in the 'network' rc script since it invokes 'dhcpcd' directly. Until somehow all of 'dhcpcd' can be made resident before it starts twiddling with the interface/routes/etc. without resorting to such subterfuge. -- |/"\ John D.
