Thank you.. this was annoying me no end, post #6 was very helpful, especially
me being relatively new to ubuntu and linux in general. Why on earth it managed
to save everything else on upgrading from 16.04 to 16.10 but ethernet, is
bordering on stupidity. If I hadn't found this fix I would probably have ended
up doing a fresh install in the hopes that I would be able to use ethernet
again, I mean wifi is actually OK for me, but when I need to transfer files to
my server/NAS I don't want to be using wifi instead of cat6 Gigabit cable.
Anyway, won't go on, but thank you #6 (buo-ren-lin) for the save, appreciate it
:)

Title:
network-manager does not manage ethernet and bluetooth interfaces when
Ubuntu 16.10 is installed using chroot/netboot method
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
Hello,
I installed Ubuntu 16.10 using a chroot. I use network-manager to
manage connections. My system is up-to-date (so I use network-manager
1.2.4-0ubuntu1).
Wifi works perfectly but I cannot connect to wired networks and using
my phone's Bluetooth connection. Corresponding devices are said to be
unmanaged by network-manager. nmcli dev outputs:
DEVICE TYPE STATE CONNECTION
enp1s0 ethernet unmanaged --
wlp2s0 wifi disconnected --
6C:9B:02:2C:EE:2C bt unmanaged --
hfp/org/bluez/hci0/dev_6C_9B_02_2C_EE_2C gsm unmanaged --
lo loopback unmanaged --
The following command has no effect:
sudo nmcli dev set enp1s0 managed yes
I can connect to a wired connection by doing:
ifconfig enp1s0 up
dhclient enp1s0
There is nothing in the file /etc/network/interfaces.
Everything works perfectly if I downgrade network-manager to this
version: network-manager_1.2.2-0ubuntu0.16.04.3_amd64.deb
(http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial-updates/amd64/network-
manager/download). I had to install libreadline6 and downgrade nplan
to meet dependencies.
I don't know what to join to this bug report so please ask in case
anything is needed.
