thomcjwatson: is there any way to tell which interface the installer is trying to dhcp?05:21
tepsipakkiyes05:36
tepsipakkiinterface=eth005:36
tepsipakkior whatever05:36
tepsipakkion the cmdline05:36
tepsipakkior netcfg/choose_interface in preseed file05:37
thomno, that's not what i asked05:39
cjwatsonyou mean to find out, not to force, right?05:47
cjwatsonfrom what level?05:47
thomwell, it's running from a preseed, and i want to confirm whether the correct file was being loaded by pxelinux05:49
thomi've now done so by deleting most of the pxelinux.cfg so it tells me05:49
thombut yeah, having it say in syslog might be nice05:50
cjwatsonit's on the dhclient command line, if you're at the console at the time05:51
cjwatson            execlp("dhclient", "dhclient", "-e", interface, NULL);05:51
cjwatsonthom: should also be in /var/log/installer/cdebconf/questions.dat post-reboot, netcfg/choose_interface05:51
cjwatsonthom: or, heck, just look in /etc/network/interfaces05:52
cjwatsonthe one after auto is the one it's using05:52
thomyeah, it was bombing out immediately with unknown interface, so i couldn't get it in ps05:53
cjwatsontry debconf-get netcfg/choose_interface then06:34
cjwatson(after netcfg exits)06:34
