(resent - I can't find it on archieve)

Hi,

I see a similar problem to the one described in
"Re: U-Boot DHCP request does not time out."
with U-Boot 1.1.1.1
But I have not seen any patch from Pantelis.

The only related message is
"[PATCH] fix dhcp command retry" from Roger Blofeld
Does that patch fix the problem?

In my case I think the counter restarts at 1 but the reboot
BOOTP does not work. If I interrupt (CTRL-C) and issue
a 'reset' the BOOTP broad cast after reset works.

How to reproduce:
* Power on -> BOOTP boot into Linux
* In Linux issue 'reboot' command
* Warm booted U-BOOT runs into this problem.
  - - -
* U-BOOT CTRL-C and 'reset' -> BOOTP boot into Linux
