Instead of using the serverip we get from the DHCP server, implicitly use
the broadcast address, which is automatically set when no ncip environment
variable is set. That way it isn't necessary to use a special DHCP
configuration to set the netconsole peer.

* you can do this only with a working network connection. Therefore, a random

* After a successful DHCP response is received, the network settings are
- * configured and the ncip parameter is set to the serverip. Eg. for a working
- * resuce mode, you should set 'next-server' to the host where the netconsole
- * client is started.

* Additionally, the bootsource is set to 'rescue'.
