I found the reason for this problem.

I have a Zaurus 5500 PDA and when the USB is plugged into the port and the machine is rebooted the interface which the kernel finds it calls eth0. Therefore, the ifup eth0 at bootup, which is supposed to be for the ethernet card, is not correctly invoked. In fact the ifup eth0 is being attempted for the Zaurus instead and hence there is a failure to acquire a dynamic ip address.

After installing 8.0 (over 7.3) my dhclient has a very difficult time connecting to the server. I never had this issue with 7.3. BTW, the hardware is identical. The error I get is:

dhclient: No DHCPOFFERS received.

After hours it will work!

What's wrong?
