try getting a current onto the machine - this will improve the
situation that sk will not lose connectivity; there are still some
issues:

- a LOR caused by locking in attach routine.

- DHCP doesn't work on startup here; the sk takes to long to come
  up; actually the machine ist up; I can login with a keyboard and
  about at this point the sk comes up; this might be an issue with
  the locking in the attach case; I think someone started to work
  on this but I cannot remember who and if he finished.
