Description:

Hello,
I have a problem with the install cd. Dhcp won't allow me to connect to the net.
Why is dhclient not included in the arch setup? dhcp is full of bugs it doesn't allow me to connect to the modem.
I have seen many users having problems with dhcp. The modem connects only when dhclient is installed,
every install cd I tried has dhclient but Arch doesn't.
I hope the next archiso image will include the dhclient this should be in the base!


Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
This task depends upon

If you need help with installing archlinux, please use irc/forums. You can always download the dhclient seperate and install it while your installing archlinux or use the core iso.
