Because there is no ip= boot parameter, it goes to: --> # no ip option directed at our interface? if [ -z "$NO_AUTO_DHCP" ] && [ ! -e /tmp/net.${netif}.up ]; then if [ -e /tmp/net.bootdev ]; then BOOTDEV=$(cat /tmp/net.bootdev) if [ "$netif" = "$BOOTDEV" ] || [ "$BOOTDEV" = "$(cat /sys/class/net/${netif}/address)" ]; then load_ipv6 do_dhcp fi else if getargs 'ip=dhcp6'; then load_ipv6 do_dhcp -6 fi if getargs 'ip=dhcp'; then do_dhcp -4 fi fi --< Comparing that to the setup loop when the ip= parameter is present, the call to the netroot script is missing: --> # Specific configuration, spin through the kernel command line # looking for ip= lines for p in $(getargs ip=); do [...] # and finally, finish interface set up if there isn't already a script # to do so (which is the case in the dhcp path) if [ ! -e $hookdir/initqueue/setup_net_$netif.sh ]; then setup_net $netif source_hook initqueue/online $netif if [ -z "$manualup" ]; then /sbin/netroot $netif fi fi if command -v wicked >/dev/null && [ -z "$manualup" ]; then /sbin/netroot $netif fi --< It does setup the ip but not the netroot. So, without the ip= parameter, dracut doesn't seems to recognize that the system root is provided via network. According to the manpage, rd.neednet only commands dracut to set up the network, but not to provide netroot: --> rd.neednet=1 boolean, bring up network even without netroot set --< I guess you would have to add a netroot parameter to make dracut aware that system root is provided via network. Maybe also root=dhcp works, though. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
