[CentOS] PXEBoot/Diskless client NFS issue

Thanks for the suggestion I did eliminate the second nic altogether and it
didn't seem to make a difference

I'm guessing this is easily replicated for others... what I'm most unsure
of is why the dhcp conversation isn't "normal" -- is it a NetworkManager
conversation in the shipping image or an ISC client that runs?  I'm just
not experienced with how the in-memory image is built... I can investigate
there if somebody can give me a clue on the image generation...

Appreciate it!
