Dhcpcd fails to assign ip information and ultimately
the network interface is never initialized.
Each time it runs, I get the following message in the
/var/log/messages file.
hcpStart: socket: Address family not supported by
protocol
Thanks for your help,

Hmm, i have seen this before , try to set a static adress
and see if it works, i mean if the card module gets
installed ok .
I have tested here locally with my own dhcpserver, and it
does actually work here, but the version i used is older
than the released :(
I will have a look at this and get back to you !

Hi, Chris!
I had the same problem. This error is due to the lack of
af_packet module.
The solution is to manually use "modprobe":
modprobe af_packet
It's important to execute this command on each boot before
network initialization. That's why I put it in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/eth0-ifup script just before
the place where DHCP client is called.
After you've done it everything works just fine.
Best regards,
Ivan
