Bug Description
I installed Lucid alpha 2 (amd64) on an external USB drive, and tried it on an Acer Extensa 5635ZG that has
Nvidia video. I ran software update so it should be up to date as of today.
When booting into recovery mode and choosing the root shell with network,
it enters into a loop saying "/sbin/
priting some DHCPDISCOVER etc lines (it's getting a lease) and then printing the syntax error line
again. It finishes after a some time of bombarding the dhcp server, when my dhcp server
ceased to respond.
