There's no NM udeb but the netcfg udeb has an "nm-conf" executable
that can set up the NM config, I assume via this preseed setting:
Template: netcfg/target_network_config
Type: select
Choices-C: nm_config, ifupdown, loopback
Choices: Network Manager, ifupdown (/etc/network/interfaces), No
network configuration
Description: for internal use; can be preseeded
Specifies what kind of network connection management tool should be
configured post-installation if multiple are available. Automatic
selection is used in this order when not specified: network-manager if
available (on Linux only), ethernet configuration through ifupdown on wired
installation and loopback configuration through ifupdown on wireless
installations.
