Bug Description
If I configure a PXE netboot for Live session like this:
label live
menu label ^Live session boot
kernel vmlinuz
append boot=casper netboot=nfs nfsroot=
the network manager applet does not launch at all. If I install it onto a computer, the resulting install will have dbus and nm-applet broken (nm-applet won't launch) and this can't be fixed by reinstalling those packages. Ubiquity does mention something about dbus failing to be set up in its 'details' console. However, if I install using any of these other methods:
* Live CD
* Live USB
* Netboot CLI install
* Alternate CD
the install works fine.

I have reassigned this issue to network-manager applet for now, additionally please could you attach /var/log/syslog and ~/.xsession-errors files to your report? Thanks
