By the way, as of 2015.70-1 this is is documented under /usr/share/doc/dropbear-initramfs/README.initramfs > And this doesn't seem to be documented (unless one looks at > /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/functions -- I had to do > a recursive grep to find in which file this was done --, one > doesn't know). I didn't either, as I couldn't solve the halting problem I just poked around to see why the network configuration seemed to loop :-P Anyway that file is shipped by the initramfs-tools package, so if you want that behavior to be documented you should file a bug report there. Anyway, if you don't want to add ip=off at boot time, you can also replace /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-premount/dropbear by our version from the git HEAD: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/dropbear.git/tree/debian/initramfs/premount-dropbear -- Guilhem.
