[Bug 363958] [NEW] in intramfs dropbear starts before NIC is ready

[Brian Pitts]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: dropbear

Initramfs integration doesn't work because dropbear tries to configure
the network before the NIC is ready.

On my Inspiron 1420 running the latest Jaunty I installed dropbear and
rebooted with ip=:::::eth0:dhcp on the kernel cmdline. After "Begin:
Starting dropbear ..." appears, ipconfig complains that eth0 doesn't
exist. A few lines later, messages about tg3 and eth0 appear.

** Affects: dropbear (Ubuntu)
