Bug Description
== Comment: #0 - Chanh H. Nguyen <email address hidden> - 2015-12-10 20:32:29 ==
We use the network to install Ubuntu 14.04.4 version. The installation is successful but then there is no network after system reboot in post install. Checking the network and I saw the order of interface are changed. This is causing no network at all.
There is 2 cards (Houston 4ports & Mellanox 2 ports). We are using the Mellanox interface for this installation.
At the installation menu, we select this interface eth2 (mellanox card)
???????

? Your system has multiple network interfaces. Choose the one to use as ?
? the primary network interface during the installation. If possible, ?
? the first connected network interface found has been selected. ?

? Primary network interface: ?

SRU TEST CASE:
--------------
* Do a netboot install in a VM or machine with more than one NIC. If you use a VM, take care to not use the default MAC addresses as they are blacklisted from the persistent net generator. E. g. use "-net nic,model=
* In the d-i environment, switch to a console with Alt+F2 after the base system got installed.
* With current trusty, there is no /etc/udev/
* With the proposed update, /etc/udev/
