After further discussion about this bug on IRC; I understand the situation better. These are thin clients that run everything off the network.
This is indeed a bug in the netplan generation code. You're seeing a networkd config there, where there shouldn't be any (since your renderer is set to NetworkManager). I think we should fix that anyway, but I also think this situation is one where it might just be best to remove the generator from the initramfs completely (as you've been doing). Any network change is likely to bring down the connection (along with the system), so even running NetworkManager available on the system means people could accidentally bring it down. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1763608 Title: Netplan ignores Interfaces without IP Addresses To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/netplan/+bug/1763608/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
