BOOTPROMPT_OPTS is not needed in lenny or sid by default- it is because debian-edu sets BOOTPROMPT_OPTS that it was necessary to set in debian-edu installs. > Hi Vagrant, > I found this bug report while doing a follow-up for: > http://bugs.skolelinux.no/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1320 > > In http://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2008/11/msg00072.html > You wrote: > "i probably should've patched the default in the packages directly ... *sigh*" > Have you patched it in Sid? :) > I could find no trace of it in the Changelog. i haven't patched the file that would make it unnecessary to set "boot=nfs" in the bootloader. will add it to the next upload. though i don't think this is really the bug Gustavo encountered- it sounded like it was *trying* to mount NFS and failing, rather that trying to mount using NBD. live well, vagrant -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
