I haven't tested that, but that should work. I downloaded the netboot
tarball anyway for putting into tftp, I don't know how to set up an
indirection that would make TFTP always download/serve the latest
tarball.

  We use the network to install Ubuntu 14.04.4 version. The installation is successful but then there is no network after system reboot in post install. Checking the network and I saw the order of interface are changed. This is causing no network at all.

  There is 2 cards (Houston 4ports & Mellanox 2 ports). We are using the Mellanox interface for this installation.
  At the installation menu, we select this interface eth2 (mellanox card)

  The mellanox inteface is now on eth3 but on the /etc/network/interface
  file, it is set on eth2.

  SRU TEST CASE:
  --------------
   * Do a netboot install in a VM or machine with more than one NIC. If you use a VM, take care to not use the default MAC addresses as they are blacklisted from the persistent net generator. E. g. use "-net nic,model=virtio,macaddr=A4:4E:31:12:34:XX" with QEMU.
   * In the d-i environment, switch to a console with Alt+F2 after the base system got installed.
   * With current trusty, there is no /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and thus it also does not exist in /target/.
   * With the proposed update, /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules should exist and be copied to /target/etc/udev/rules.d/ as well.
