Description Tim Flink 2011-10-18 22:40:32 UTC 
Description of problem:

When an iSCSI LUN is added at install time as a non-required part of the filesystem (10G auth-less iSCSI LUN as /opt in this case) the kernel args don't include the information needed to bring up the network interface in dracut.

This means that mounting the iSCSI LUN at boot fails every time

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
anaconda-16.21.fc16

How reproducible:
every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install F16 with iSCSI LUN as /opt
2. reboot
  
Actual results:
linux command line in grub is:

linux   /vmlinuz-3.1.0-0.rc9.git0.0.fc16.i686.PAE root=/dev/sda4 ro single rd.md=0 rd.lvm=0 rd.dm=0  KEYTABLE=us quiet SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 rhgb rd.luks=0 LANG=en_US.UTF-8


Expected results:
linux command line in grub is:

linux   /vmlinuz-3.1.0-0.rc9.git0.0.fc16.i686.PAE root=/dev/sda4 ro rd.md=0 rd.lvm=0 rd.dm=0  KEYTABLE=us SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 rd.luks=0 LANG=en_US.UTF-8 ip=<iface_name>:<bootproto> ifname=<iface_name>:<MAC ADDRESS>

I forgot that mounting /opt is not done in initrd, closing.
