[Xen-devel] [OSSTEST PATCH 03/12] ts-host-install: set `IPAPPEND 2' (if interface isn't forced)

[Ian Jackson <ian.jackson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This causes BOOTIF=<mac-address> to appear on command line.  This
makes d-i use that interface.  (See also Debian #615600.)

This is a better approach to interface name instability than setting
the force interface host property.
