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

Status in systemd 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.
