[Bug 572426] Re: root recovery session same as netroot

Indeed the only different between root and netroot is that netroot
starts dhclient on eth0 which in quite a few cases should bring the
network up.

I don't particularly like this implementation and it'd make more sense
to either run "ifup -a" or start NetworkManager depending on what's
installed on the system.

Changing priority so that it stays on the radar for the next release.

Title:
  netroot doesn't work in most cases

Status in “friendly-recovery” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: friendly-recovery

  the 7th entry in recovery-menu (root) seems to me like the 6th
  (netroot) because when I enter the netroot one I expect to have full
  netwrok support, while I enter root session I would expect that no
  network device is enabled, instead even for root session it is
  enabled.
