Public bug reported: While attempting to do certification testing on hardware with Cisco VIC Ethernet NICs installed, I noticed that the 10.04.3 installer does not load the enic module. This means I am unable to configure network devices inside the installer, and I am pretty sure this would also impact the ability to perform network installs.
Once the system is manually installed, however, the enic module is loaded at boot. From there I can simply add config info to /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/resolv.conf, do an 'ifup eth0' and networking functions as expected from that point onwards. So the installer kernel just needs to have enic added to it.
