Just a quick comment from skimming over the patch: As you can see from the discussion in [1], an auto or allow-* line without a corresponding iface config is no longer considered valid syntax. Recent versions of ifupdown are stricter about that. At least that is my understanding from reading [1]. "man interfaces" is not really definitive in that regard. Andrew, I hope you can clarify this. That means, in addition to commenting out the actual iface config, you also need to comment out the "auto eth0" or "allow-hotplug eth0" line. What makes this a bit more complicated, is that you can use a syntax like this: auto eth0 eth1 iface eth0 inet manual iface eth1 inet dhcp In this case you can't simply comment out the auto line, since that would disable eth0. Would be great if you can update your patch accordingly.
