I'm trying to configure a bootable image to be used in various situations

For the filesystem I can use geom_label and /dev/ufs/UnlikelyString, but I'd
also like to have it try to configure whatever interfaces the machine
happens to have via DHCP.
Other than specifying ifconfig_<if>0="DHCP" once for every possible value of
<if>, is there a mechanism to do this already?
ifconfig_DEFAULT
Superb, thank you!
If you have non-Ethernet-like interfaces compiled in, you will probably
want create empty "ifconfig_<if>" variables for them since DHCP won't
work very well there. :)
Good point, thanks again :)

Well, the real question is why we force the details of driver names onto
users. Network and storage drivers are especially guilty of this, but
tty devices also are annoying.
