Package: debian-installer Severity: normal The dhcp_preseed_url function in preseed.sh, part of preseed:
https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/preseed/-/blob/399d9e8d56d64161449e9415cc8fe33ae88711f2/preseed.sh#L173 only checks for the "filename" entry in DHCP lease files. The "filename" entry is a holdover from the BOOTP protocol. Some DHCP servers don't allow setting the filename at all. OpenWRT's odhcpd, doesn't allow setting the filename in DHCP responses for classified clients, such as clients with a vendor class containing "d-i", it only allows setting DHCP options. It would be good if dhcp_preseed_url could take advantage of the DHCP "bootfile-name" option and not just the BOOTP filename. -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.4 APT prefers stable APT policy: (991, 'stable'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-debug'), (500, 'oldstable-updates'), (500, 'oldstable-debug'), (500, 'oldstable'), (70, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.6.0-linux-latest-32 (SMP w/16 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init)
