and <http://rd.net|rd.net>.dhcp.retry=<cnt>
but not together, which was key. I think the documentation could be improved by putting these 2 options near eachother or repeat them. There is a "Note: ip=interface" paragraph in the CREATE Mode section. And the retry option is down in the Useful Kernel Parameters section. Mentioning ip=<interface>:dchp
in the Useful Kernel Parameters would be helpful.
Second, in my attempts I had a side quest with BOOTIF
and it worked great to get an interface up with the MAC filled in from IPXE, but failed to kick off fetching the squash image. If BOOTIF
was supported it would solve the hard-coding scale problem that I've seen in PXE related issues, https://github.com/harvester/harvester/issues/1363#issuecomment-1012647293
