We moved from 7.04 to 7.10 doing an upgrade via ssh on the LTSP server. 
Most of the things work fine, but after the reboot, for the previous 
network profile got mangled. We had eth0 and eth1 for internal and 
external interfaces. After the upgrade, the interfaces became eth1 and 
eth2 and eth2:avah and eth0 disappeared. I had to uninstall 
network-manager and reset /etc/network/interfaces by hand to eth1 and 
eth2 to make it all work again. I also uninstalled avahi-daemon.

Strange...was the mangle due to avahi or network-manager?
