[Patrick Domack]

Hmm, actually, after updating initrd again, it went back to the first
one, heh, wonder what exactly was going on.

Title:
  iscsi install initiator name

Status in “debian-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When installing using an iscsi disk, the initiator name changes
  between install and postinstall.

  When installing, the open-iscsi package gets extracted and sets up /etc/iscsi/initiatorname.iscsi as
  InitiatorName=iqn.1993-08.org.debian:01:3271f5491f86

  is used to login to the iscsi target, so during install you must have
  that name in the allowed list.

  After install, and you reboot, it uses a different name:
  InitiatorName=iqn.1993-08.org.debian:01:9d338319d9b4

  It would be benifitial and less admin overhead if the name was
  created, and used in all steps.

  This should also be atleast printed, like on the iscsi screen where it
  asks for the iscsi target to connect to, so that the admin knows the
  name, and doesn't have to login to a different virtual console and run
  iscsi-iname to find out what it's using, then flip back over.
