From 24875289070511b1039b690e72cf241b5d554688 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: maximilian attems Date: Sat, 10 Apr 2010 07:04:05 +0200 Subject: configure_networking(): work with empty DEVICE string initramfs-tools currently requires a device to be hard-coded, but this is not much use if the network device is not known ahead of time. If the device specified in either /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf or on the ip=xxx kernel command line. usefull for multiple net devices.
