This seems to be fixed in Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (noble). At least I'm able to create an Ubuntu noble nfsroot, with these caveats:
- Must run fai-make-nfsroot on a host with a new-enough debootstrap, I ran it on an Ubuntu noble host. - Must use a newer FAI, the one shipped with Noble isn't new enough. I simply used the FAI Ubuntu jammy PPA (there isn't one for noble yet), both on the host running fai-make-nfsroot and in the nfsroot. - You must have a dhclient binary installed in the nfsroot for the dracut network-legacy module to work, I used isc-dhcp-client (added it to the right place in NFSROOT). Getting this to work was actually a showstopper for us, due to NIC (un)stable naming issues. The Debian nfsroot gave us slightly different NIC names compared to the installed Ubuntu noble, this only affected NICs in PCIe slots... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1660587 Title: Dracut cannot be used to generate kernel initramfs image To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1660587/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
