Bug description:
[Impact]
Users booting from OEM setup may find that their wireless device is "not
ready" as per NetworkManager, because wpasupplicant is not running. This is
because the steps taken to start in OEM prepare, before moving to the real
system runs systemctl isolate, and wpasupplicant gets caught in the crossfire.
[Test case]
* Steps to reproduce:
1. Install in OEM mode
2. Boot into OS
3. Check the wifi status in network-manager applet
* Expected result:
Available APs listed in network-manager applet, wifi connection can be
established
* Actual result:
AP list replaced by a greyed-out "device not ready" wording
Reboot system or do "$ sudo service network-manager restart" and wifi will
then start working correctly.
[Regression potential]
The following are examples of possible regression scenarios from this stable
update:
- Failure to get the wireless device ready at session start
- Driver loading issues for the wireless devices
- Failure to complete OEM preparation steps, due to the oem user remaining
connected while it's being removed by the last steps of the OEM preparation
process.
[Background information]
* OS: Xenial
* Network-manager: 1.1.93-0ubuntu4
* Wireless module: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88W8897 [AVASTAR] 802.11ac
Wireless [11ab:2b38]
