08:18 BlindBunnysts: for what it's worth: I see a similar behavior behind a Cisco DHCP server.
08:20 BlindBunnysts: While the kernel accepts the server's DHCP messages, the DHCP client in the initrd does not and times out

10:52 stsBlindBunny: well, I'm using IEC DHCP and I suppose this should actually work, if its a question of the vendor...
10:53 stsBlindBunny: and i had FAI earlier on etch as well, and I did't had these funny problems.
10:55 mgoetzests: is that "IEC" as in "ISC", or something i've never heard of?
10:55 stsuups :))
10:55 mgoetzeok :) so have you tried running tcpdump on the dhcp server?
10:56 stswell, it's not stuck forever anymore, it just takes about 5-10 minutes until it actually "accepts" the ip from the dhcp server.
10:56 stsmgoetze: yes. the dhcp server is replying to the requests.
10:57 mgoetzehm, and it takes 5-10 mins to get through? maybe try another cable somewhere along the way...
10:57 stsmgoetze: i'm booting the whole machine over pxe.
10:57 stsmgoetze: so i'm doing one dhcp request already for the pxe boot.
10:58 stsmgoetze: and the first request is "normal"/fast ;-)

12:21 glancemy tip is to do some network sniffing to see what the server recv's
12:21 glanceand sends

12:49 fimbloHi, I've got a setup-storage question, could anyone help me get in touch with someone who's involved with that project?
13:15 mgoetzefimblo: you're in the right channel
13:15 mgoetzefimblo: alternatively, try the linux-fai mailing list
13:20 fimbloaha, ok. well, I just sent an email to fai@informatik.uni-koeln.de, but here's a quick description
13:21 fimbloI use fai v3.2.20, and I'm wondering why Init.pm in setup-storage doesnt accept physical devices like /dev/sdu?
13:21 fimbloThe regexp explicitly allows only sd[a-t]
13:21 fimbloI was just wondering
13:21 mgoetzehm, no idea
13:22 mgoetzeprobably only mt can answer that :)
13:22 fimblo:)
13:23 fimbloI was thinking it was to not conflict with _really_ old dev systems, where /dev/sdX (where X>'t') means something else... but dunno
13:27 fimblowill my email to fai@informatik.uni-koeln.de reach mt? or shall I try to email him directly?
13:28 mgoetzeif that reaches anyone, it'll reach MrFai, who did not write setup-storage ;)
