Public bug reported:

Running Lubuntu's Yakkety alternate i386 beta1 installer fails.

I arrive at a red screen with the text: "No network interfaces were
found ..."

This is in a Toshiba laptop, that I have used for testing since 2013,
and it works with the corresponding current Lubuntu desktop iso files. I
expect the wired ethernet to work with the alternate iso file like it
worked, when I tested with Yakkety alternate i386 alpha 2.

ctrl + alt + F4 shows the following log text:

-----

net/hw-detect.hotplug: detected hotpluggable network interface lo

check-missing-firmware: no missing firmware in loaded kernwel modules

netcfg: WARNING: **: Couldno't read Wpasupplicant pid file, not trying to kill.
netcfg: INFO: Could not find valid BOOTIF= entry in /proc/cmdline
-----

It works to continue the installation without network. The installed
system boots, but the installed system fails to connect to the internet.
I have not tried to fix it, just noticed that ethernet does not work
'out of the box' as it should in the installed system.
