Title: hyper-v: Hyper-V network broken for Trusty on Server 2008R2 Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Due to a bug in the Hyper-V host verion 2008R2, we need to use a slightly smaller receive buffer size, otherwise the buffer will not be accepted by the legacy hosts. Without this fix, the network driver will not load while hosting Trusty on Server 2008R2. The following patch addresses the problem: [PATCH net-next] hyperv: Change the receive buffer size for legacy hosts Due to a bug in the Hyper-V host verion 2008R2, we need to use a slightly smaller receive buffer size, otherwise the buffer will not be accepted by the legacy hosts.
