Where I'm stuck is getting it to run dhclient itself automatically when the WLAN dongle is connected.
The network/interfaces previously posted sounds the best bet. Alternatively:
If it's running Udev, maybe try adding KERNEL=="eth1", RUN+="dhclient eth1" to the udev rules file.
If it's hotplug, maybe try adding to /etc/hotplug/net.agent
If it's running ModuleInitTools add install ndiswrapper modprobe --ignore-install ndiswrapper && dhclient eth1 to /etc/modprobe.conf
I should probably do sort something like this myself, instead of hacking the network init script. ;-)
Hope it works,
