State Changed From-To: open->feedback I'm pretty sure that you need to give us more info here. Could you send dmesg(8) output for the affected system so that the maintainer can see what network card you were using and can confirm that the network card was actually probed properly? Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-bugs->obrien Over to the maintainer. Hi,
The network was indeed probed without any problems. I found
something strange yesterday. After I changed /etc/rc.conf to use DHCP &
rebooted it the first time, the system came up fine. When I rebooted it
yesterday evening (after I filed the PR), the system did not come up
(after displaying something related to 'hostname' while booting). I left
it and today morning, I found that the system is up.
Regards,
Muthu

State Changed
From-To: feedback->closed
It sounds like a sysinstall problem, not dhclient one. Since 4.1 isn't the
current release, I'm closing this unless someone sees the same problem
with 4.2 {beta,RC,release}.
