Started to bring up real HW with the same woes and timeout on boot. After some more cursing and faffing around I realized an odd element of the resulting setup:
There is some weird ipv6 link local address for DNS server: fe80::c66e:1fff:fe3b:bdcd. It is the same for the VM doing dhcp and for real HW where I manually set everything and that does *not* include any fancy ipv6 address. Matter of fact I cannot enter any ipv6 address in the nameservers address section without getting complaints about unexpected ':'s. But that is another story. So does anybody have a clue were that comes from? It is not in the generated netplan files in /run/systemd/network but systemd-resolvd gets it (probably from /run/systemd/netif/links/*). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1697730 Title: Long boot time due to systemd-networkd-wait-online.service failure To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1697730/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
