Apart from the suggested addition of iscsi_ibft, IMHO there is some code required to actually use that information. I humbly offer the attached patch to use the information provided by the ibft to set up the iSCSI interface.
It is not perfect, though, because if /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/dhcp is not "0.0.0.0", dhclient3 would need to be started as well so the lease would be refreshed. Adding iscsi_ibft and this patch caused my BX924 blade server to boot Ubuntu Server 12.04. ** Attachment added: "patch.iscsi" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/partman-iscsi/+bug/623462/+attachment/3245841/+files/patch.iscsi -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/623462 Title: install to iSCSI target does not pick up iSCSI parameters from iBFT To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/623462/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
