  Target Milestone: ---

Hi,

The BR2_SYSTEM_DHCP config is needed if you want the package ifupdown-scripts
to add automatic eth0 configuration to /etc/network/interfaces.

It's not available in menuconfig.
If you add it to the defconfig and make, it will be removed. You have to add it
to the .config manually and make if you want proper files to be generated.

I'm using a custom skeleton and busybox.

Why is it suppressed? Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks, happy new year!
