We've moved to GRUB 2 as a development platform. Unfortunately, GRUB 2 doesn't have network support yet, although there's ongoing work to implement it. If you want to help on that, please contact <grub-devel@gnu.org>.

In the meantime, this bug doesn't apply. I'm closing it.

The DHCP address as detected by GRUB (0.0.0.0) can't be reused to contact my TFTP server, resulting in GRUB hanging on any TFTP download attempt. To fix, I added support for getting the TFTP address from the DHCP server. Works fine now, even for TFTP and DHCP on different addresses.

For details, see the patch's overly chatty changelog. (Feel free to abridge same before applying, heh.)
