Several users have reported to me that the network-console images are
broken.
Commit ec6d3c3d79 (Move screen support) moved the screen support
around and also changed the logic of when screen is used.
Unfortunately, that change broke all network-console images which now
lead to:
installer@192.168.0.102's password:
There is no screen to be resumed matching sh.
Connection to 192.168.0.102 closed.
This is because d-i is already running in screen on the serial console but
it's active and can't be resumed.
I believe below is the right fix, i.e. start screen when screen exists and
when we're on serial or when we're NOT on network.
Samuel, Roger, does that look correct?
