Comment 12 for bug 365380

We have Dell Optiplex 745 as thin clients for a Jaunty LTSP setup. Everything works well on 8.10 LTSP, but on jaunty, on the client side I see (I am typing what I see):

tg3: eth0: Link is up at 100 Mbps, full duplex.
tg3: eth0: Flow control is off for TX and off for RX.
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth0: link becomes ready
IP-Config: no response after 60 secs - giving up
/init: .: line 1: can't open /tmp/net-eth0.conf
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
Dumping ftrace buffer:
(ftrace buffer empty)

This is preventing me from switching an entire lab from 8.10 to 9.04.
