[Bug 870214] Re: iSCSI root installation creates manual eth0 configuration + long boot

[Stéphane Graber]

Commenting the part about eth0 works around the issue.
I'd still think "inet manual" should be considered as a similar setup and not wait 2 minutes for something to happen (which will never happen as the interface is already up and nothing needs to be done).

Bug description:
  ISO Tracker Test Case:
  http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/Install/ServeriSCSIRoot#Unauthenticated%20Login

  Installation completed fine, system does boot but has the following
  entry in /etc/network/interfaces:

  # The primary network interface
  auto eth0
  iface eth0 inet manual

  As a result the failsafe upstart configuration appears to kick in to
  the server takes a while to get to a login prompt
