Ethernet device from dmesg:
dc0: <Intel 21143 10/100BaseTX> port 0xfc00-0xfc7f mem 0xfedff800-0xfedffbff irq 11 at device 18.0 on pci0

>Description:
It does not appear as if DHCP is ever invoked by sysinstall after selecting it to configure the interface.  I am immediately sent to a blank configuration form, and DHCP is not put in the interface's rc.conf options.
>How-To-Repeat:
- Boot 6.0-CURRENT-SNAP005-i386-disc1.iso
- 'Quick Install'
- When prompted to configure Ethernet devices, say 'yes'
- When prompted to use IPv6, say 'no'
- When prompted to use DHCP, say 'yes'
