Bug Description
After installing Ubuntu 20070411 from the alternate CD on both amd64 and i386, some machines seem to cause NetworkManager to assign an address to the eth1:avah interface rather than eth0. For example, this is the output of the ifconfig command for the eth1:avah interface on a Sun Ultra 20 M2 workstation:
eth1:avah Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:14:4F:3A:65:F5
inet addr:169.254.7.190 Bcast:169.
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
Then, running dhclient assigns an address to eth0 properly from the DHCP server and the eth1:avah interface disappears temporarily from the output of the ifconfig command. A minute later, the eth1:avah interface appears again but eth0 is still properly assigned.

I have got the same problem here with Ubuntu 7.04 and some i386 Notebook.
