Title:
  ubuntu-server daily iso - Upon installation, /etc/network/interfaces
  not populated with correct network interface names, so networking
  fails to start

Status in debian-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Hello.

  I've installed today from the Ubuntu Server Daily ISO.  During the
  installer process, we get the system identifying network interfaces
  with the traditional unpredictable naming algorithms of eth##.  After
  installation, the system uses systemd to identify network interface
  names, per
  http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames/

  In the Virtual Environment i'm using, on VMware Workstation x64 with
  two virtual NICs, I end up with ens33 and ens34 according to the
  installed system.

  However, the installer populated the /etc/network/interfaces
  configuration with eth0 and eth1.  As a result, networking fails to
  start up after a reboot, and either /etc/network/interfaces needs
  edited to match the correct identifiers and a reboot issued, or one
  has to do `sudo dhclient` to update the IP address.  For static
  addressing networks, of course, you still need to revise the
  interfaces file.

  This is a serious issue, as upon installation via the ubuntu-server
  ISO, networking will fail to come up, leaving users to scratch their
  head expecting instant access.

  Due to an uncertainty in the severity, I've set it to High given that
  last point.  Please feel free to change it.  Note that this is filed
  against both systemd and netcfg as I am not sure which one needs to be
  fixed.
