I found the cause.

When the DHCP client on voyage-0.2pre4 is started, the /var/run 
directory is not writable, so it could not write the leases file and pid 
file. After 5 minutes the DHCP lease is tried to be renewed, but the 
DHCP client then fails.


Can someone running from (flash) disk do a 'ls -al /var/run' on their 
Voyage-0.2pre4 ?

Regards,

Leon.
