[Bug 848072] Re: [oneiric] net-installer dhcp client fails with a DHCPDECLINE
Hi all, sorry to reopen this old ticket (maybe I should open a new ticket, I don't know the correct workflow), I am facing the same issue on Ubuntu 14.04. I am trying to netboot using cobbler + PXE + TFTP, everything works fine except that DHCP auto configuration fails. I can see on the logs that every DHCP offers is rejected with DHCP decline. I have tried to modify /sbin/dhclient-script as initially proposed by Jacob Strauss without success. Please let me know what relevant data you need to help me.

[Bug 848072] Re: [oneiric] net-installer dhcp client fails with a DHCPDECLINE
This bug was fixed in the package netcfg - 1.111ubuntu1 --- netcfg (1.111ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=low * Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining changes: - Set default hostname to 'ubuntu'. - Set priority for get_domain to high for static configurations. - Set priority for get_domain to medium for non-static configurations. - Use 'auto ' for all interfaces, dropping allow-hotplug which doesn't work with current udev. - Set DHCP and DHCPv6 timeout to 30s. - Use isc-dhcp-client-udeb on all architectures. - Flush all addresses and routes before configuring interfaces (LP: #848072) - Don't copy /etc/resolv.conf to target if resolvconf is installed. (We already write resolvconf configuration to /etc/network/interfaces.) - Add a post-base-install hook to detect resolvconf and copy /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf to outside the target so that when /run is bind-mounted DNS resolving continues to work.

Yes, I have a PXE & DHCP server serving out the netboot kernel and initrd.gz file, as copied from the mirrors in ubuntu/dists/oneiric/main /installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/ubuntu-installer/amd64/.

Ok, so just to make sure I understood your setup correctly.
