User Feedback :: DHCP broadcast gets stuck :(
OK, I downloaded version 0.5.3.1, roasted it on a CD and booted it.
Then all appears to work nicely up 'till the following message:
Network device eth0 detected, DHCP broadcasting for IP.
It gets stuck there. No Ctrl-C or Ctrl-D or the three-fingered-salute helps me get past this message.
On this machine, I also run Windows XP-professional (yeah, I know, shouldn't do that, but you know how it is...) and Suse Professional 8.0 without any problems. These both use static IP adresses in my local network though.
I'm behind a router with DHCP services enabled, so this should IMHO not pose any problem.
What am I missing here? Any suggsetions?
Thanx in advance,
PapaBear 
Have you tried disabling the DHCP broadcast with a cheatcode (press F2 at boot)?
No, actually I didn't, I'm new at DSL and have (of course) not read any documentation yet ;-)
But I'll try and let you know!
I promised you I'd let you know, and it works.
I installed DSL and it's what I hoped it would be.
