grml64-full boot up without network for Lenovo type 20TH

suntong commented 3 years ago

Describe the bug grml64-full_2020.06 boot up without network for Lenovo type 20TH
https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/ca/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-p-series-laptops/thinkpad-p1-gen-3-type-20th-20tj/20th/20th000xus

Steps To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Install grml64-full_2020.06 to usb
boot Lenovo 20th000xus with grml64-full_2020.06 from usb (and choose advanced > start x)

Expected behavior

network eth0 is up.

In which Grml Version did the bug occur?

grml64-full_2020.06

I wanted to use the latest Grml, but am blocked by #182

Additional context

The same USB, when booting my ASUS, the network eth0 is up as expected.

suntong commented 3 years ago

The ip a s can show the eth0 but there is no IP address for it.

Using dhclient was able to bring up network. Weird that it was not started by default.

suntong commented 3 years ago

Changed title because I've just booted my Lenovo with grml64-full 2021.07 and I got the exact same problem as reported above --

No IP unless using dhclient to bring up the network.

Again, booting grml64-full 2021.07 with my ASUS does not have such problem.

Please retry with grml64-full 2021.07. Issues to look into if the problem still persists:

what happens, if you give the system some more time after booting finished, does network still don't come up automatically?
are dhclient process(es) running if system finished booting?
what's inside dmesg output and in /var/log/syslog?

suntong commented 3 years ago

Already done that --

Changed title because I've just booted my Lenovo with grml64-full 2021.07 and I got the exact same problem as reported above...

Anyway, I reboot my Lenovo into grml64-full 2021.07 again, and have tried all the following:

dmesg | grep -Ei 'dhcp|dns|client'
cat /var/log/syslog | grep -Ei 'dhcp|dns|client'
ps -eaf | grep -Ei 'dhcp|dns|client'

but there was no relevant output.

and dhclient was not able to start even after 20~30 minutes.

mika commented 3 years ago

Alright, but if you run dhclient eth0 manually, it works as expected?

If so, what's the output of the following commands:

ethtool -i eth0 lshw -C net -short journalctl | grep -i eth dmesg | grep eth
