Those two reports gave me a clue. I assume the opposite. You want hostonly disabled. The patch fix-dracut-enable-hostonly_cmdline-in- hostonly-mode-again.patch enables hostonly-cmdline by default again, but this: dracut[W]: Turning off host-only mode: /dev is not mounted! does not turn off hostonly-cmdline which causes the host config to leak into the initrd. I'll prepare a fix for dracut. -- Benjamin Drung Debian & Ubuntu Developer
