Comment 2 for bug 559090

Thanks for you answer Steve. I will test this on a next server install soon, but I guess this will work. Still, I think the documentation is very unclear. I did read /usr/share/doc/ifenslave-2.6/README.Debian, but that didn't inform me of the fact that Ubuntu now always handles devices in a hotplug manner, and hence a different bond configuration is required. That info is only on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidLynx/ReleaseNotes#Bonded%20network%20interfaces%20must%20use%20hotplug-style%20configuration. I think it should also be in the documentation files of the ifenslave package.
