Package: fai
Version: 2.8.4
Severity: important

Hi!

/usr/sbin/fai runs "ifup lo" to setup the loopback interface (line 150).
However, since /etc/network/run is not writable ifup fails.

Running without the loopback interface causes problems (delays) for nfs-mounts
since communication fails with the portmapper on localhost.

Workaround, let make-fai-nfsroot replace /etc/network/run with a link to /tmp
or another writable location.

regards / Ralf
