Bug Description
While powering on a MAAS-deployed machine today I saw this:
My IP address seems to be C0A809CA 192.168.9.202
ip=192.
BOOTIF=
SYSUUID=
TFTP prefix:
Trying to load: pxelinux.

error: diskfilter writes are not supported.
Press any key to continue...[ 0.000000] Initializing cgroup subsys cpuset
Any idea what "diskfilter writes" are, why the system thought they were requested, and why it worked regardless?
