[Bug 237460] Re: Root on iscsi is not supported

2009-08-11 Thread Colin Watson
So this set of patches isn't ideal in some ways; in particular it configures /etc/network/interfaces statically, which has the set of problems I described in comment 6. However, I think it will at least make things basically work and people can always edit /etc/network/interfaces by hand if need be

What needs to be done to make the open-iscsi-udeb load earlier in the install sequence so its block devices are available to disk-detect? Sounds like the initramfs problem is solved. As for blowing away the networking, one possible solution: if the installer knows what interface the initiator cam

To clarify, the disk-detect problem is that the open-iscsi-udeb isn't loaded until *after* the loop that goes around looking for (physical) disks runs. Incidentally, that loop does an "exit 10" if there are not local disks at all, so the open-iscsi-udeb never gets loaded if the system has no physic

Just to fill in a bit more info: 1. The hw-detect problem should be straightforward enough, so I won't go into much depth about that. 2. The problems involing open-iscsi are many-fold: 2.a. Networking is not configured in initramfs (yet the network is clearly up since we have loaded the initramf
