Description Andreas Thienemann 2006-10-08 12:54:40 UTC
When deselecting all packages during package selection, so that a minimum base
system is installed, the dhcp client is not to being installed.

This happens even though the network interface eth0 was configured to obtain
it's ip address via dhcp.
The startup script fails thus during bootup, resulting in an unreachable machine.

It would be great, if dhcpcd is forced to be installed when dhcp is configured
for the interface.

The absolute minimum install is basically "what do I need to get to a login
prompt".  Nothing more.
