[08:46] <Abhijit> hello
[08:46] <Abhijit> can anyone please try to solve this bug?
[08:46] <Abhijit> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netcfg/+bug/855921
[08:47] <Abhijit> or assign to someone who can solve it?
[09:15] <maxb> That bug is not a bug, it's expected behaviour
[09:16] <maxb> Logic dictates that the contents of a network loaded preseed cannot affect questions asked before the preseed file is downloaded
[09:19] <Abhijit> maxb, just ask the questios "after" the preseed is loaded?
[09:22] <maxb> Erm, no. :-). It needs to choose the interface to enable the network to download the preseed!
[09:22] <Abhijit> maxb, and how does Centos works with same configuration then, out of the box , without any issues?
[09:23] <Abhijit> why centos does not force me to select eth0 before kickstart is loaded?
[09:23] <Abhijit> if centos can do it why can not ubuntu?
[09:23] <Abhijit> maxb, ^
[09:25] <maxb> Ubuntu can
[09:25] <Abhijit> how?
[09:25] <Abhijit> as we can see from that launchpad bug report, Ubuntu can not?
[09:26] <maxb> You probably just need to turn on the reelated option in your pxelinux config so the pxelinux passes a BOOTIF parameter on the kernel command line
[09:26] <Abhijit> okey. will check on bootif more.
[09:27] <maxb> My guess  would be Centos makes a different design decision and assumes the first interface if it has no better information
[09:28] <Abhijit> summary is Centos is better!
[09:28] <Abhijit> your argument is invalid.
[09:31] <maxb> Better for some, worse for others
[09:32] <Abhijit> invalid.
[09:33] <maxb> People doing bulk installsvought to be able to set up the PXE environmwnt to include the information. People doing single installs will either make one more keypress or save a lot of time wondering why it does not work
[09:34] <maxb> however you now appear to be trolling, so I shall stop talking
[11:32] <brainwash> please change the importance of bug 1041176 to wishlist
[11:47]  * penguin42 looks
[11:47] <penguin42> brainwash: Done
[11:47] <brainwash> penguin42: thanks :)
