Additional info 1) When PXE installing on a VMware Workstation using the VMware DHCP server plus Serva as proxyDHCP the bug is not present. When PXE installing on a real PC with a Netgear ISP router as DHCP plus Serva as proxyDHCP the bug is present.
In the first case the VMware DHCP module ignores the bad conformed ipconfig DHCP request but in the second case the NETGEAR DHCP refuses to provide the required DHCP parameters. 2) This bug has also been reported upstream https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=756633 Please guys do something with this; today this issue affects virtually all the Debian/Ubuntu distros and their derivatives. ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #756633 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=756633 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1327412 Title: Delay during PXE Boot, IP-Config gives up To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/klibc/+bug/1327412/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
