I disagree:
`man networking`
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
It's terribly simple. Just requires some RTFM. We're not a distro for
total noobs to a command line and to man pages. I actually think this
is better, because there actually is documentation, unlike before. Of
course, someone could always go rewrite netconf to generate such a file.
