A workaround to avoid rebuilding the initramfs is to use TWO initramfs's. The second one contains just a symlink from scripts/casper- bottom/25disable_cdrom.mount to /bin/true. I.e.:
cd $(mktemp -d) mkdir -p scripts/casper-bottom/ ln -s /bin/true scripts/casper-bottom/25disable_cdrom.mount find . | cpio -o -H newc | gzip > initrd-1755863.img Copy the generated initrd-1755863.img to your TFTP/HTTP server, and pass it in the kernel cmdline. In iPXE vernacular: kernel /images/cdrom/casper/vmlinuz initrd=initrd.lz initrd=initrd-1755863.img boot=casper netboot=nfs nfsroot=10.161.254.11:/cdrom file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed -- initrd /images/cdrom/casper/initrd.lz initrd /liveclone/initrd-1755863.img -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1755863 Title: netbooting the bionic live CD over NFS goes straight to maintenance mode : To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/systemd/+bug/1755863/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
