Hello, I am not sure if there is a bug here. Here is the issue: I have machines with multiple NICs and only one of the NICs is connected to a network which has a DHCP server. The rest are connected to other networks, and neither of those networks have a DHCP server on it. When I boot a machine into debian live it tries to get a DHCP lease on the first interface with a link. Unfortunately one of the first NICs with a link does not have a DHCP server on it, the script doesn't seem to time out. Ideally it would time out and tries the second interface with a link and so on and so forth.
Loading, please wait... Waiting for ethernet card(s) up... If this fails, maybe the ethernet card is not supported by the kernel 2.6.39-bpo.2-486? Looking for a connected Ethernet interface ... eth0 ? eth1 ? eth10 ? eth11 ? eth12 ? eth13 ? eth2 ? eth3 ? eth4 ? eth5 ? eth6 ? eth7 ? eth8 ? eth9 ? found eth1. IP-Config: eth1 hardware address 00:1b:21:b2:a0:44 mtu 1500 DHCP RARP eth1 has a link but no DHCP server. The interface with the DHCP server is eth4, but IP-Config never times out on eth1 Any help will be appreciated, Kashif -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
