** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: debian-installer
+ Stable release update justification:
+ 
+ IMPACT: Some systems with their root file system on iSCSI fail to boot.
+ 
+ DEVELOPMENT BRANCH: open-iscsi 2.0.871-0ubuntu6 fixes this bug as
+ described in comment 15.
+ 
+ PATCH: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/oneiric/open-
+ iscsi/oneiric/revision/32
+ 
+ TEST CASE: Only some iSCSI-based systems suffer from this; I expect
+ there are race conditions involved.  Those affected would fail to boot
+ in some manner similar to that described later in this bug description,
+ and this change should make them boot successfully.
+ 
+ REGRESSION POTENTIAL: Strictly confined to systems using iSCSI.  I tried
+ hard not to make any additional assumptions in this patch; if it works,
+ it should be safe.
+ 
+ Original report follows:
  
  Natty alpha3 test iso's for ubuntu-server amd64 (haven't tested i386
  yet).
  
  Running the iscsi auth and unauth tests.
  
  Installation is fine. Before reboot, I copy vmlinuz and initrd.img to
  tftp server.
  
  System boots ok, till it gets past apparmor, then it has issues, I
  assume something with bringing up networking is wiping out the iscsi
  config?
  
  Screen shows:
  
  fsck version ......
