[LI] RHL 6.1 (PCQ) doesn't work with DHCP by default.

["Kousik Bera" <kousik.bera@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Linuxers,
I tried installing RHL 6.1 from PCQ on my workstation. My network uses DHCP
to get IP addr. So I selected DHCP during install (I had given static addr
for all the previous install I've done so far). But to my surprise, during
the boot and initialization the m/c hang during eth0 initialization. So I
had to hard reset :-(( the m/c and start with linux single. To my surprise
the dhcp client (dhcpcd)was not at all installed at /sbin. So I guess.. it
might be a problem with the installation scripts. I manually installed the
dhcpcd rpm from the PCQ cd... then I had to manually modify some script
files and config files to get things right (after struggling a couple of
hour to grasp the DHCP mini howto) . Is it a problem with the RHL 6.1 or due
to some modification done by PCQ?
