I don't really spell it out anywhere.

Just the big difference between the 4gb/2gb "lxde" images and the 2gb
"console" image is:

lxde = g_multi
console = g_ether

where as g_ether doesn't work as nicely as g_multi, but i do get
usb0/ethX link to show up on my debian workstation.

The only way to "properly" switch the console back to using g_multi
correcly, would be to add the extra 100Mb fat partition (which the
lxde images have by default).  But the point of the console, was
something small users can build off of, so that would be a waste..
