[Bug 800824] [NEW] cloud-init-nonet times out in lxc

[Scott Moser]

Public bug reported:

running an ubuntu cloud image under lxc will time out on network.

There has been lots of discussion on this, most recently in IRC on ubuntu-cloud [1].
>From memory, this is due to virtual-filesystems coming up after mounted=/ on lxc.  Because of that udev does not start, which means the network device event never occurs which would bring up the network.  The result is that the instance boots, but times out for 70 seconds, and cloud-init doesn't do anything.
