Slow network booting on Ubuntu server12.10

New Ubuntu Server12.10 on Virtualbox is slow to boot up. Seems like netwrok portion is holding up.

Here is quick resolution.

 

1. Install ‘ifplugd’

 

sudo apt-get install ifplugd

sudo dpkg-reconfigure ifplugd

 

2. modify /etc/network/interfaces

 

From

auto eth2

iface eth2 inet dhcp

 

 

To

allow-hotplug eth2
