[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1652348] [NEW] initrd dhcp fails / ignores valid response <https://www.mail-archive.com/search?l=kernel-packa...@lists.launchpad.net&q=subject:%22%5C%5BKernel%5C-packages%5C%5D+%5C%5BBug+1652348%5C%5D+%5C%5BNEW%5C%5D+initrd+dhcp+fails+%5C%2F+ignores%09valid+response%22&o=newest> https://www.mail-archive.com/kernel- packa...@lists.launchpad.net/msg211650.html I also have this bug IP-Config: no response after 2 secs - giving up IP-Config: ens2f0 hardware address 90:e2:ba:d1:36:38 mtu 1500 DHCP RARP etc., etc., etc. ... and tracked it to: c I set the countdown to "2 3 4 6 9" and saw the count of failures match appropriately. I note that there are no problems if I attach an Ethernet cable from my router to the PC. A probable solution is to use wlan (to get a connectible device) or to test and see if the eth actually has a connected cable. Perhaps both.
