+# This allows NFS booting to work while also being able to configure
+# the network interface via DHCP when not NFS booting. Otherwise, a
+# NFS booted system will likely hang during DHCP configuration.
+
+# Attempting to configure the network interface used for NFS will
+# initially bring that network down. Since the root filesystem is
+# accessed over this network, the system hangs.
+
+# This script is run by ifup and will attempt to detect if a NFS root
+# mount uses the interface to be configured (IFACE), and if so does
+# not configure it. This should allow the same build to be disk/flash
+# booted or NFS booted.
