>Description:
	The first attempt to automatically configure a network interface
	through DHCP fails. sysinst asks if you want to configure through
	DHCP; you answer yes, and then you get immediately another screen
	with configuration results (it is impossible, dhclient hasn't had
	enough time to gather the information). For some reason, the
	gateway and DNS server appear properly, both set to 192.168.1.1
	(but I guess they are some default), because everything else is
	unconfigured.

	When sysinst asks you if the configuration is ok, you answer no
	and then answer yes again to the DHCP question. This time, you can
	see how dhclient is started, and how it fetches the information
	(it needs several seconds now). Then, everything is ok.

	This happens both with 1.6M installation disks and 1.6.1_RC1.
