Bug Description
When installing using an iscsi disk, the initiator name changes between install and postinstall.
When installing, the open-iscsi package gets extracted and sets up /etc/iscsi/
InitiatorName=
is used to login to the iscsi target, so during install you must have that name in the allowed list.
After install, and you reboot, it uses a different name:
InitiatorName=
It would be benifitial and less admin overhead if the name was created, and used in all steps.
This should also be atleast printed, like on the iscsi screen where it asks for the iscsi target to connect to, so that the admin knows the name, and doesn't have to login to a different virtual console and run iscsi-iname to find out what it's using, then flip back over.

Hmm, actually, after updating initrd again, it went back to the first one, heh, wonder what exactly was going on.
