Apologies in advance for bike-shedding.
Perhaps we should check if netcfg/choose_interface is set to 'auto'
instead of blindly setting the interface name? This should cater for
people who have accidentally left the ipappend option on (or have cargo-
culted the option from elsewhere) and have specified a specific
interface?
If this is being discussed elsewhere (upstream), I will be happy to take
the conversation there.
Example:
LABEL install
kernel hardy-amd64
# whoops I have left this on
ipappend 2
# and i have specifically asked for an interface (which will be ignored)
append interface=eth2 [more options]
