Passing the option "ip=all" to kernel at boot causes /usr/share /initramfs-tools/scripts/nfs to pass the argument "all" to ipconfig, with the following result:
IP-Config:eth0 hardware addresss 00:01:02:03:04:05 mtu 1500 DHCP RARP [29.123456] eth0: no link durring initialization IP-Config:eth1 hardware addresss 00:01:02:03:04:06 mtu 1500 DHCP RARP [29.123456] tg3: eth1: link up 100mbit/s etc then it displays all the DHCP details, and waits forever I added the -t timeout flag, and wildcard for picking up the config results, see attached patch. With the patch and "ip=all" kernel boot argument, booting succeeds. ** Attachment added: "allow initramfs to PXE/NFS boot with multiple NICs" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/11333294/nfs.diff -- network NFS DHCP boot fails on multiple NIC machine https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/182940 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
