The dracut.cmdline man page lists:
ip=<client-IP>:[<peer>]:<gateway-IP>:<netmask>:<client_hostname>:<interface>:
{none|off|dhcp|on|any|dhcp6|auto6|ibft}[:[<dns1>][:<dns2>]]
for explicit (static) network configuration. To my old mind, "netmask"
refers to something of the form 255.X.X.X. However if I use that form with
EL7 or Fedora 20, it fails with a message like:
Bringing up interface eth0: Error: an inet prefix is expected rather than
"10.8.0.0/255.255.255.0".
It works if I give it a CIDR suffix. It appears that the netmask for used
to work.
