[Bug 791611] Re: LTSP live doesn't work with new Network Manager

[Alkis Georgopoulos]

A workaround might be to add "eth0 manual" to /etc/network/interfaces.
This way network manager shows the interface as "unmanaged" in the UI,
and doesn't touch it.

Unrelated to live LTSP, the same "eth0 manual" approach should also work
for LTSP clients. E.g. fat clients can then have network manager
installed (now we blacklist it) and use it to create e.g. VPN or wifi
connections, while their boot interface remains unmanaged.

  LTSP live doesn't work with new Network Manager

Status in “ltsp” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  The new Network Manager seems to detect manual changes to network
  cards and reset them (at least in alpha-1).

  This is breaking LTSP live.
