Package: live-initramfs
Version: 1.154.8-1
Severity: important
I'm using line-initramfs as part of FAI to netboot machines with two
NICs, only one of which is actually set up to be DHCPd. We have
hundreds of machines like this at my work, it's not something we can
reasonably change at the per-machine level.
The following patch makes everything work in my environment, and I
believe will still work in single-NIC setups:
