[ELDK] dhclient error

[Wolfgang Denk]

Dear Jonathan,

in message <OF60A57909.4B24316E-ONC125764E.00473870-C125764E.0047D912 at schneider-electric.com> you wrote:

Well, if the "/sbin/dhclient-script" script itself is present, then
maybe it cannot be run because the needed interpreter is missing. I
guess your script (please check!) starts with a line like that:

	#!/bin/bash

So please make sure that bash is installed in your root file system,
too - or modify the script such that it works without requiring bash.

Now this is pretty clear, isn't it?

ELDK 3.1.1 is very old. Is there any special reason for not using
current code, i. e. ELDK release 4.2 ?


Best regards,
