I am sure that this has been fixed i seen a post that it would be fixed and
this is how I would hace done the modification rather than take out the
whole IF statement
3c503 | hp_plus | hp | ne ) # I remove the ne2k-pci from the case
statement
if [ -z "${IO}" ]; then
echo
echo "ERROR! No IO specified."
echo " The NIC requires an IO=0xNNN entry on the kernel
command line."
echo " This is setup in the /etc/dhcpd.conf file using
option-129"
echo
exit 1
fi
IOADDR="io=${IO}"
