I've tested launching a Oracle Cloud baremetal instance (which boots from iSCSI) using such patch, and all worked well:

The existence of this file makes configure_networking() skip configuring the BOOTIF later due to this code in `scripts/functions`: for x in /run/net-"${DEVICE}".conf /run/net-*.conf ; do if [ -e "$x" ]; then IP=done break fi done To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/2056187/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
