Summary: Gentoo Root FS image: no dhcpcd

Initial Comment:
Request: please include dhcpcd in the Gentoo Root FS Image,ie, in the next image posted for 2.6 kernel (after Gentoo-colinux-stage3-x86-2004.3.bz2).

Namely, please emerge it in the image before posting to Source Forge. This way those of use who can use dhcp can use it without needing to emerge it. 

Thanks.

Ok, I'm the one who made that image.  Some people use dhcp,
some do not.  The easiest setup to get working predictably
is a static ip configuration, granted I don't want to force
this setup upon anyone. Its been about a year since I made
that image.  I am pretty sure I included a dhcp suite in the
image, but it wasn't dhcpcd.  Since I should update it to a
more modern stage3 soon, I'll take a look at dhcp stuff
again. (IIRC, there was some good reason why I excluded
dhcp*cd*, but I'm going to have to take a look at it.)

No, Dan is not the only one who can upload images to SF. 
There are several others (including me), when the image is
ready, you can drop an message on the colinux-devel ML and
anyone of us who has rights will grab it, give it a once
over, report back if changes are needed, or upload it and
post an announcement back to the ML when it's uploaded.

Well I can build the image. But it is down to da-x to put it
on SF. How do we invoke him?

Great suggestions.  Both to include dhcp client, and to have
it disabled by default.  Thanks for contributing.  Anyone
want to build an updated Gentoo image and submit to the
colinux-devel mailing list where to get it so we can upload
it to SF?

I would suggest if this has been emerged, not including it
in the default run level - as depending on your choice of
networking options - you may not actually want this running
- and it is a bad idea to have it enabled by default as it
may not be appropriate in some network setups.
