The default value retains the current behaviour of enabling UDHCPC in initrd if the user has either the global or any per-interface
useDHCP
option enabled, but making it an explicit option means that the user can enable UDHCPC in initrd under other circumstances.Motivation for this change
I have a desktop system with an encrypted root, that I want to be able to decrypt over SSH when required, but that I also use networkmanager for normally. Using DHCP in the initrd is more preferable to me than setting an explicit static IP for the initrd.
