Public bug reported:
I really don't know to what package this bug should be addressed. Instead of
network-manager it might also be:
netbase
ifupdown
I installed intrepid with preseed and pxelinux from
d-i mirror/http/hostname string ftp.sunet.se
d-i mirror/http/directory string /pub/os/Linux/distributions/ubuntu/ubuntu
today ( 22 october 2008 ).
Booting up the machine after the installation I notice that eth0 doesn't
get configured:
<snip>
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# /etc/init.d/networking start
* Configuring network interfaces...
Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0.
</snip>
But after I edit

now works ( i.e. eth0 gets an IP address and I can surf the internet )
Here is my pxelinux config

I attach the preseed configuration file.
