I am still getting the same error however from libguestfs log (when
creating VM) seems that DHCP has been found - no 'DHCP can't be
found' or whatever error it was. So there is some progress but the
issue persists :-/
This is what I have done
apt-get purge dhcpcd5*
apt-get install isc-dhcp-client
echo isc-dhcp-client > /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/guestfs/supermin.d/zzz-dhcp
libguestfs-test-tool (and the message was indeed in the log)
So I am wondering what could be the issue. I am enclosing libguestfs
log from VM creation
http://pastebin.com/A3We5f1F . Thanks a lot for
your help
In addition to the dependency issue, dhclient needs the interface as
parameter; this has been fixed upstream already, and I left an
additional comment in the Debian bug with the patch needed to backport:
https://bugs.debian.org/775514#68
You can workaround locally with the following instructions as root:
1) # cd /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/guestfs/supermin.d/
2) # tar xzf init.tar.gz
3) patch the 'init' file with the changes in
https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commit/2d2a65504dca732a398d23756...
4) # tar czf init.tar.gz init
5) # rm init
Now the network should be working.
Thanks,
