This also affects me, I tried with Ubuntu server iso as well as the netboot tarball. I have tried using an automated install via preseed as well as KS and a manual install just loading the kernel and initrd via tftp. ALL of these methods result in a loop where the client receives a DHCPOFFER from the server(which in my case is our network firewall), this is then followed by a DHCPACK, then the client DHCPDECLINES and keeps looping through all available DHCP addresses in the pool until the DHCP server has no more addresses to give out.
There appears to be an old similar bug here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netcfg/+bug/848072 Is anyone able to look into this? I have been beating my head against the wall for about a week now and could really use some assistance. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1292019 Title: ubuntu causes DHCP DOS attack during install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netcfg/+bug/1292019/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
