I put a branch at https://code.launchpad.net/~smoser/ubuntu/+source /initramfs-tools/+git/initramfs-tools/+ref/lp-1631010 with a fix for this. other improvements too: improvements to dhclient handing of ip= command lines. Improvemnts here are: a.) do not leave /run/net-* around if dhclient failed b.) support ip6= on the kernel cmdline ip6= off : default. ip= does not mean to do ipv6 only : only do ipv6 (no ipv4) on : always do ipv6 even if ipv4 succeeded. iff : do ipv6 if and only if ipv4 fails c.) wait for link local address to settle (dad) before attempting to dhcp -6 d.) do not run through the dhcp configure once for each ROUNDTTT -- 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/1631010 Title: please add a cmdline option to chose between ipv4, ipv6, or dual-stack network boot Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Right now, I can boot with "ip=hostname:BOOTIF" in the kernel commandline, and (after bug 1621507), I get whatever it came up with for ipv4 and ipv6.
