i'd strongly suggest not using the in-kernel dhcpd as it has bugs and
isn't really well supported. probably the best thing would be to add the
support to klibc and the initramfs tools. This actually gives you much
more flexibility in the end too (we can manage some failover situations
with this sort of set up).
