Public bug reported:

After selecting netroot from the friendly menu, I do get root but no
network: only the loop interface is up. This happens even though the
laptop has in fact both wired and wireless net, both of which do work on
the system after a normal boot.

If I run ifconfig eth0 up and dhclient eth0 on the prompt, the wired
interface comes up fine, so that's a workaround.

Bug #572426 seems to have been repurposed for something that could make
this a duplicate of that. Bug #868748 also describes something similar,
but this isn't just about not getting an IP address; the interfaces
(apart from lo) aren't brough up automatically at all.
