I have discovered something else.  When I use the 10/100 interface, from
the efi shell I initiate a lanboot and I see the DHCP requests in the logs
on the dhcp server.  However, when it starts the install, I don't see
another DHCP request, even though I specified that for the install and its
getting a dynamic address and somehow using it.  Why in the world is that?
Is it somehow passing the initial ip address into the install?  How would
it know where to get it from??
