DHCP is not allocated by dhcpd, but dhclient works #799

Description

@MatthewCroughan

For some reason, be it my network or otherwise, I see dhcpd does not fail on startup of the installer, and that it seemingly completes. Upon running ifconfig, I do not have an ipv4 address, which means you cannot install, etc. However, by running dhclient I am assigned an ipv4 address by the network. Unsure if this is an oversight or not, seems unlikely considering that Anarchy is used a lot. Just reporting this here, I can provide further details if you ask me to replicate this, but it really is just that simple:

  • Boot anarchy
  • Welcome to Anarchy Linux
  • execute ifconfig
  • eno1 has only an inet6 addr, not inet, (no ipv4)
  • execute dhclient
  • execute ifconfig
  • I see that I now have an ipv4 address and can continue with the install
