I'm hitting the same bug. It's a show-stopper when it comes down to using PXE for network booting. I'm using Wily Werewolf and trying to boot off PXE, but no dice. The DHCP server receives the request, OFFERs an IP address and ipconfig (from klibc-utils) simply doesn't acknowledge it.

I first ran across the bug while using Clonezilla (which runs off a live Ubuntu 15.10 distro) booting off PXE. It turned the deployment into Hell on Earth.

I've opened the initrd cpio+xv image, snatched the binaries and also provided a bit more info about the system in which I performed the tests. Let me know if you need further info.

Right now, this is a show-stopper for PXE deployments. Please assist us with this issue.

Thanks!
