Public bug reported: Ubuntu release:
Testing Lubuntu Quantal 12.10 Alpha 2 Alternate amd64 image from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/daily/20120627/quantal-alternate- amd64.iso . Testing was done in a virtualbox 4.1.16 VM. Package version: debian-installer 20101020ubuntu150 Expected Behaviour: After DHCP configuration, no manual provision of network information should be requested, the installation process should continue to disk partitioning etc. Actual (unexpected) Behaviour: During the install process, after a message that DHCP autoconfiguration was successful, a dialog with the title "[!!] Configuring the network" is displayed which asks the user for a list of nameserver IPs. This issue is repeatable. Using the equivalent i386 ISO image, the issue does not occur. Using the Lubuntu 12.04 amd64 ISO image, the issue also does not occur. If one enters a suitable IP (I used 8.8.8.8), the installation continues but when booting into the new (virtual) machine, DNS is not functional and /etc/resolv.conf does not contain the expected nameserver 8.8.8.8 line, but instead contains nameserver 127.0.0.1 Workaround: Hand editing of /etc/resolv.conf fixes this at least temporarily, and editing /etc/network/interfaces fixes it more permanently, but clearly should not be necessary. ** Affects: debian-installer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1018271 Title: unexpected prompt for nameserver IP when using DHCP To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/1018271/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
