Title:
  d-i ignores netcfg/disable_dhcp=true from the kernel command line

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

Bug description:
  From my testing so far this problem began with oneiric and continues
  with precise.  Lucid and Natty work as expected.

  What I expect to happen:

  1) boot mini, alternate, or server install ISO (i.e. any debian-installer based ISO)
  2) append "netcfg/disable_dhcp=true" before the double-dash in the kernel command line
  3) start installer
  4) be prompted for IP configuration

  4) d-i attempts to configure with DHCP
