This should do the trick.
If someone comes across this issue and this patch hasn't been merged
we found an ugly workaround using a preseed file:
d-i preseed/early_command string \
sed -i '/^case /i domain="$search"' /etc/udhcpc/default.script; \
mv /sbin/udhcpc /sbin/udhcpc.real; \
echo '#!/bin/sh' > /sbin/udhcpc; \
echo 'exec /bin/busybox udhcpc -O search "$@"' >> /sbin/udhcpc; \
chmod +x /sbin/udhcpc
It will make a wrapper for udhcpc that will force netcfg to query
search domains, patch the default.script callback script from udhcpc
to make domain="$seach".
regards
