Bug Description
Running Lubuntu's Yakkety alternate i386 beta1 installer fails.
I arrive at a red screen with the text: "No network interfaces were found ..."
This is in a Toshiba laptop, that I have used for testing since 2013, and it works with the corresponding current Lubuntu desktop iso files. I expect the wired ethernet to work with the alternate iso file like it worked, when I tested with Yakkety alternate i386 alpha 2.

It works to continue the installation without network. The installed system boots, but the installed system fails to connect to the internet. I have not tried to fix it, just noticed that ethernet does not work 'out of the box' as it should in the installed system.
