Ah, but floppyfw doesn't come with "dhcpd", it comes with "udhcpd" which
is a mini dhcp client/server.  udhcpd's config file and command line
parameters are completely different.  It appears to support "interface"
in the config file, but I haven't got it to work yet.

I don't think there is room enough on the floppy for the real dhcp.  :-(
