I have linked bug #1013843 to this one but I'd like to point out a few
differences.
* Bug #1013843 was filed against Quantal. The bug didn't affect Precise.
* Quantal has resolvconf. So does the Quantal Desktop live CD. So did Precise.
Earlier Ubuntus didn't.
* The problem is observed at the

netboot insall of live cd results in a manual network interface

I can also confirm that this issue still exists in casper as of
2.04.2011. I am working with the BitDefender LiveCD (which uses casper)
and have found that a PXE boot of the LiveCD does not update the
/etc/resolv.conf.
I move, additionally, to excise the manual method from

casper's logic in 23networking seems broken. At that point in the
install NetworkManager would not be installed. Would it be sufficient to
just skip adding the manual method interfaces to
/etc/network/interfaces, since omitting them would make their
I can confirm that this bug is still present in Maverick.
To clarify the end user impact: When installing from PXE, this means that
network is not working at the very first boot of the newly installed system,
even though it worked during installation. This looks like quite a serious
issue to
I noticed the same problem on both karmic and lucid. If you PXE boot
the live cd, the eth0 interface works as expected. If you then run the
installer from the live cd and reboot, the network does not come up. If

When netbooting the live CD over NFS, the network connection must be
preserved throughout the live session so that the filesystem remains
accessible. Currently, this is achieved by adding the following lines to
