Comment 6 for bug 203954

a discussion will be held about a proper solution at UDS karmic, we need to find a way to not silently break upgrades of amd64 based servers (where people most likely use a i386 chroot and thus changed the file manually) and new installs from CD. the best solution here would be to:

a) detect if there is network connection at install time and offer the user to build a 386 chroot if possible (we cant include i386 packages on CD so a net connection is essential here)
b) modify or generate the first installed dhcpd.conf according to the actual client arch
c) do the right ucf magic to make sure this generated file is known to be good to avoid coffile prompts
