Hi Randall,

indeed, there should be a dhcp server running on the adhoc network, did
you test that? or is there no visible adhoc network on the clients at all?

also note, the images there are still experimental, so expect some bugs
and that the repositories may disappear any time. also, feedback is very
welcome.

Regards, Manuel
