2014-03-13 14:32:10 steverweber description While installing ubuntu server 14.4 or older version 13 we have an DOS on DHCP During the install at the detect network IP using DHCP we have had issues where if this process is left on this screen overnight we have about 10 million DHCP request/decline events. (a request every ~10ms) 1. click detect IP using DHCP... the bar goes across the screen then gives up... 2. leave the install at the screen to retry network detection. 3. /detection seems to still continue in a background process/ This is extremely aggressive on our network and causes issues in a large enterprise network. Please have someone look into this before the LTS release. Thanks.
