I can confirm this.  When installing via PXE boot using a Karmic Desktop
Install CD, the installed system does not properly connect to the
network automatically the way the live environment did.  Running "sudo
dhclient" gets an address, and it then connects fine, but when you
reboot it is back to the improper configuration.

Removing:

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual

from /etc/network/interfaces and rebooting solves the problem.  Deleting
the file also seems to work, though it isn't regenerated  after doing
so.  This seems in keeping with what I've read suggesting that Network
Manager doesn't need this file anymore (though perhaps it uses it if it
is there?).

In any case, this should be fixed, as it poses a significant barrier
towards network based installs using the livecd.
