For the past months I've installed Ubuntu 14.04 server  by using
kickstart. In the post-part of the kickstart-script I lounche a shell-
script that do some system config, everything has worked fine so fare.
Now I've started testing 14.04 and there is one thing that do not work
the same way as in 14.04! I rewrite a new /etc/network/interfaces and
try to replace the old one, but the old on will not be overwritten or
removed. Any one having any sugestions?

Is the above suggestions works??

Title:
  14.04 /etc/network/interfaces is always overwritten by Preseed

Status in netcfg package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  
  I'm having trouble with my /etc/network/interfaces file that is
  overwritten by every Preseed install.

  I have found out that when I let the late_command crash and I manually
  enter some identifier in:

  /etc/network/interfaces

  and

  /target/etc/network/interfaces

  the one in /etc/network/interfaces stays there, so no overwriting from
  the target version in that case.

  the fix to place the following in the late_command doesn't fix it
  either:

  cp /target/etc/network/interfaces /etc/network/interfaces

  Any idea on how to fix this ?
