I had a look at the boot log. The lines from the beginning of the initramfs:
``` [ 1.214268] Run /init as init process [ 1.236339] systemd[1]: Inserted module 'autofs4' ``` There are 0.02 seconds between the "Run /init as init process" and the first systemd log line. So either systemd was used in the initrd (thus initramfs-tools was not used) or no initramfs was used at all. So no initramfs-tools code was involved in this boot and therefore it cannot be a regression from initramfs-tools. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to initramfs-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2056187 Title: fails to configure BOOTIF when using iscsi Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in open-iscsi package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in initramfs-tools source package in Focal: Fix Committed Status in open-iscsi source package in Focal: New Status in initramfs-tools source package in Jammy: Fix Committed Status in open-iscsi source package in Jammy: New Bug description: [ Impact ] * MAAS cannot PXE-boot a machine that has iSCSI disks * Focal is the default Ubuntu distribution deployed by MAAS, so we should back-port this to ensure it works out-of-the-box. [ Test Plan ] * reproducing this issue requires a machine with iSCSI disks (Cisco UCS Manager in the original report), and a MAAS controller (3.4 or better) * the issue can be observed by simply enlisting the machine in MAAS. It will fail to boot due to the missing BOOTIF configuration. [ Where problems could occur ] * the problematic code was an attempt to fix LP#2037202, so we should watch out for regressions. [ Original report ] we have a bad interaction between initramfs-tools and open-iscsi, resulting in the boot interface not being configured. when the iscsi has a static address, the script `local-top/iscsi` from open-iscsi creates a /run/net-$DEVICE.conf file for the iscsi interface. The existence of this file makes configure_networking() skip configuring the BOOTIF later due to this code in `scripts/functions`: for x in /run/net-"${DEVICE}".conf /run/net-*.conf ; do if [ -e "$x" ]; then IP=done break fi done To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/2056187/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
