we have a bad interaction between initramfs-tools and open-iscsi, resulting in the boot interface not being configured.

when the iscsi has a static address, the script `local-top/iscsi` from open-iscsi creates a /run/net-$DEVICE.conf file for the iscsi interface. The existence of this file makes configure_networking() skip configuring the BOOTIF later due to this code in `scripts/functions`:

        for x in /run/net-"${DEVICE}".conf /run/net-*.conf ; do
            if [ -e "$x" ]; then
                IP=done
                break
            fi
        done
