ipconfig: send host-name in DHCP requests
Normally dhclient can be configured to send the "host-name" option in DHCP requests to update the client's DNS record. However for an NFSROOT system, dhclient shall never be called (which may change the IP addr and therefore lose your root NFS mount connection). So enable updating the DNS record with kernel parameter ip=::::$HOST_NAME::dhcp Signed-off-by: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
