The write_loopback procedure of netcfg-common.c will wipe any existing /etc/network/interfaces file (writing only an 'informative header') and then add only a loopback interface: > 1118 netcfg_write_interface(NULL); > 1119 netcfg_write_interface(&lo); This is triggered once from 40netcfg, and copied into the target immediately. Presumably ifupdown configuration happens sometime after. The above write_loopback procedure is triggered again after install from 55netcfg-copy-config, if "netcfg/target_network_config" is set to "nm_config" or "loopback". (Wiping then writing just a loopback entry). Maybe you need to preseed this setting to "ifupdown" for it to work as expected? Please attach your full /var/log/installer/syslog (gzipped) if that doesn't help. Thanks!
