Bug #3141
dhclient blocks boot process
0%
Description
I have installed dfly-x86_64-5.2.1_REL.img from a USB stick and the installation went well. I chose DHCP for automatic config of the LAN card. When I boot Dragonfly, the boot process starts dhclient for er0 but then nothing else happens. It seem that dhclient is blocking the further boot process and thus no login is possible. The message "er0: watchdog timeout" occurs several times. The system still works, I can reboot using Ctrl+Alt+Del.

Updated by Can you try 5.0 img? I imported a new version of re in 5.0->5.2 time
frame, which may cause trouble.

Can you control-C out of dhclient to continue the booting process?

Now I have tried version 5.0.2 as well. dhclient does not block the boot process but still can't configure the LAN interface re0. I tried to configure it manually, which seemed to work, but I can't ping any host, not even my router in the local network.
When using Linux, all works well, so there is no network problem or alike. It must be a major bug in Dragonfly.

I tested static ip config as well, using 192.168.0.13, but still no success. Other BSDs like GhostBSD work fine.
