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.
