[Bug 1768632] Re: installer static IPv4 DNS is not used

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

Based on your output, I believe you are using the new Ubuntu Server
installer.

I have attempted to reproduce the issue at hand, and I have managed to
complete the installation with dhcpv6 + static ipv4 connectivity with
DNS server propagating correctly to the installed system. The end
networking info generated was:

# This file is generated from information provided by
# the datasource.  Changes to it will not persist across an instance.
# To disable cloud-init's network configuration capabilities, write a file
# /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/99-disable-network-config.cfg with the following:
# network: {config: disabled}
network:
    ethernets:
        ens3:
            addresses:
            - 192.168.122.7/24
            dhcp6: true
            gateway4: 192.168.122.1
            nameservers:
                addresses:
                - 192.168.122.1
                search: []
            optional: true
    version: 2

Which is what I would expect, after filling out static network
configuration (subnet, ip, gateway, nameserver).

Please provide more detailed instruction on how to reproduce the issue?
Or maybe inspect the system using additional tty's? And provide more
detailed steps and screenshots / photos?

Title:
  installer static IPv4 DNS is not used

Status in subiquity:
  Incomplete
Status in debian-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  installing from 18.04 Server ISO
  Selected static IPv4 address, Gateway and DNS

  retyped from installer output

  writing to file /tmp/tmp9711pfi_state/network_config with network config: network:
    ethernets:
      eth0:
        addresses:
        - 192.168.53.34/24
        dhcp6: tru
        gateway4: 192.168.53.251
        nameservers: {}
        iotional: true
    version: 2

  This then causes the install to fail.

  Using DHCP does not have this problem
