Bug#282354: install: dhclient sends and accept improper request/offer
Package: install
Severity: important
Maybe related to #278403, prevents the network configuration through
DHCP.
Network interface used for netinstall is eth1 (two cards on the computer installed), corresponding to subnetwork 192.168.1.*
However, dhclient requests an IP of the shape 192.168.0.X, and accepts
an IP of the shape 192.168.1.X
Solved by:
- setting the DHCP server (here, from dnsmasq) to offer a static
192.168.1.X IP when a request is sent with a particular MAC address
- setting dhclient to send the MAC address of the network card's for eth1
