issue with $netdevices_up and squeeze

[David Dreezer]

Hi Thomas,

This did not work, unfortunately. I patched the get-boot-info script yet FAI still thinks eth1 is up. If I ssh to the client machine and run that line manually then echo $netdevices_up I see only eth0, however boot.log shows this:

netdevices_all="eth0
eth1"
netdevices_up="eth0
eth1"
netdevices="eth0
eth1"
BROADCAST='10.0.1.255'
[cut]

I'm not sure what the next step is.
