In my case, it was completely impossible to get a DHCP lease - not even
the first (and only) terminal. The context is a large network with (I
suppose) Windows DHCP servers. It took me a while to get to the solution
indicated in the bug report.
Removing -c '' from the script solves the problem. Now I tested -c
"LTSP-i386" and found that it works, too.
While talking about client ID, I would like to draw your attention to a
line above the udhcpc call:
clientid_param=${clientid:+"-r $clientid"}
What I dislike is the inconsistency that the kernel command-line
parameter "clientid" is used for udhcpc parameter "Request IP address".
