Just a small note that there is a improvement for the Ethernet
interface startup.
Currently, the boot process waits for ifup eth0 to be finished
before a login appears. If no cable is plugged in, this needs
quite a while (30-60 seconds) and prints some DHCP errors.
The solution is to replace
auto eth0
in /etc/network/interfaces with
allow-hotplug eth0
