[17:54] http://dpaste.de/FTdUc/ dhcpd: DHCPDECLINE of 192.168.0.57 from 00:16:d3:c6:68:98 via eth0: abandoned [17:55] boot and ubuntu boot are fine, that's from the oneiric netboot installer - the server grinds though 50+ IPs and I think the installer gives up. [17:55] boot = pxe boot rom dhcp client [17:56] this is a new dhcp config - works fine with my old, yeah, trying to see what's different. [18:51] i think the installer's dhclient is using the IP before the server has agreed, and so the server pings, sees the IP in use, so rejects and goes onto the next. [18:53] ip addr show = eth0 is assigned all 240 IP's in my servers pool. [19:01] hmm, working now, not sure why. let's see if diff shows anything useful [19:11] option routers 192.168.1.1 ; wrong, but surprised at the side effect [19:29] yep, "routers 192.168.1.1" was outside the assigned 192.168.0.10/24 .. seems the installer has code checking for something - it throws a warning dialog if it doesn't exist, and I am guessing just loops if it is wrong [23:44] Bug #889656 [23:44] Launchpad bug 889656 in debian-installer "installer stops using proxy " [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/889656
