Hi, This issue is affecting Alpine Linux too. From the setup script we will start network in the background while user creates the root password. However, udhcpc will not print information on the screen about the lease which will overwrite the "Enter root password" prompt.
I tried to redirect output to /dev/null, but this does not work since the information is printed to stderr. If we redirect stderr we will not be able to display any real error messages. I think we will have to patch busybox for Alpine to fix this, but it would be nice to not need maintain a fork. Are there any suggestions how to fix this? -nc On Sat, 25 Jun 2016 06:48:14 +1000 "Michael D.
