how to make a persistent DHCP client after a HD install

[lothario]

Yes, but netcardconfig did not show me any network cards.

So I looked into /etc/modules-2.6.6
and noticed that 3c509 was missing.

I added 3c509 to /etc/modules-2.6.6
and rebooted. Now the 3c509 module
loads at boot time and since DHCP is
already a boot option the DHCP client
is happening.
