[Touch-packages] [Bug 1990542] Re: initrd starts dhclient on interfaces that are not supposed to get an IP address
Right. The handover from basic networking in initrd to the full Netplan setup in the booting/booted system could probably be improved (in may ways), e.g. flushing the IP addresses. I guess that's something we'd need to implement in systemd-networkd when taking over the interfaces. I wonder if NetworkManager is handling this situation any different here? Did you try installing the "network- manager" package and using the global "renderer: NetworkManager" setting in your Netplan configuration? Does it show the same result? ** Changed in: netplan.io (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium => Low -- 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/1990542 Title: initrd starts dhclient on interfaces that are not supposed to get an IP address Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in netplan.io package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: After trying several setups, I think this is a bug.

ip=off helps, thanks. If initramfs-tools doesn't do bridges and this is the result, then that's a bug.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1990542] Re: initrd starts dhclient on interfaces that are not supposed to get an IP address
No, aoetools is not at fault here. The initrd does not take your netplan configuration into account. You could specify the ip= kernel parameter to let the initrd setup your network as you want it, but initramfs-tools does not have any support for brigdes as far as I know. If you do not need/use aoetools, then you can just remove that package or specify "ip=off" on the kernel command line to disable configuring the network in the initrd. -- 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/1990542 Title: initrd starts dhclient on interfaces that are not supposed to get an IP address Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in netplan.io package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: After trying several setups, I think this is a bug.

Maybe the bug now should be filed against aoetools?

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1990542] Re: initrd starts dhclient on interfaces that are not supposed to get an IP address
It's not any cmdline options. (/proc/cmdline has root=[rootdev] ro) But I searched on because I couldn't reproduce this bug on a virtual machine. While on the host system that bugged me, a change in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/functions to not start dhclient (but echo it instead to a file somewhere) showed that the bug was still there. Turns out: installing aoetools is the culprit: apt-get install aoetools update-initramfs -k all -u Skimming through local-top/aoe briefly, I can't see where this goes wrong. Both iscsi and nfs seem to have the same "configure_networking" settings. But I'm probably missing something, as I'm not 100% at home in initrd scripts. -- 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/1990542 Title: initrd starts dhclient on interfaces that are not supposed to get an IP address Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in netplan.io package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: After trying several setups, I think this is a bug.

Can you specify how you boot your system? Which parameters do you pass to the kernel? Do you need IP configuration in your initrd?
