Subject: [PATCH] kvm tools: Enable kernel DHCP autoconf by default
Date: Tue,  9 Aug 2011 20:53:31 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1312912411-9416-1-git-send-email-penberg@kernel.org> (raw)

As we boot to '/bin/sh' by default, enable kernel DHCP autoconfiguration too.
The guest kernel needs to be configured with the following configuration
options:

  CONFIG_IP_PNP=y
  CONFIG_IP_PNP_DHCP=y
