dropbear-initramfs possible with open-iscsi during boot, using different NICs?
I have a system with dropbear-initramfs to unlock crypto containers
during boot. The system has a second NIC that I will be using to attach
iSCSI disks to the system, some of which / may wind up moving to.
(/boot will remain attached locally.)
It seems that there is support for iSCSI during boot, however it's not
clear to me how to get the kernel to bring up _both_ NICs so that
dropbear and open-iscsi can run on different ones. (Based on my
research, the ip= kernel parameter can only be specified once.)
Is there a supported way to configure two interfaces in the initrd to
accomplish this?
