Package: open-iscsi
Version: 2.0.870~rc3-0.1
Severity: important

Hi,

The local-top/iscsi initramfs integration script uses the
configure_networking function, which depends on the IPOPTS environmental
variable set by the init script.  However, this variable is not
available, because it's not exported from init, and local-top/iscsi is
not sourced but executed.  Thus static IP configuration on the kernel
command line is not communicated to the script.

It may be an initramfs-tools bug, I'm not sure about the communication
policy.  Adding an export statement into init fixes this issue.

Thanks,
Feri.
