Public bug reported:

I did a clean install on a Lenovo Z50 70 with an erased hard disk from
the Server install CD version 14.04.2 LTS.

lsb_release -rd
Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS


The install succeeded without warnings. Packages were downloaded from online.

After reboot the system came up normally to a command prompt, but there
were no working network. connections.

The r8169 Ethernet driver had loaded normally and there was nothing
strange in dmesg.

Further debugging via lshw -c network  showed that only the loppback
interface was configured and the other interfaces were marked *-network
DISABLED.

Checking /etc/network/interfaces indeed showed that there was no
configuration for the relevant devices.

workaround:

Manually edited /etc/network/interfaces and added the following lines

auto p2p1
ifacce p2p1 inet dhcp

reboot, and all was nominal.
