Hi all, For the last few days we can see that the *network* service is failing on Fedora 23 Cloud base images [1]. Upon digging more in the issue, I found the following in the journal. Oct 12 19:03:40 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: Starting LSB: Bring up/down networking... Oct 12 19:03:41 localhost.localdomain network[424]: Bringing up loopback interface: [ OK ] Oct 12 19:03:51 testcloud.localdomain network[424]: Bringing up interface ens3: ERROR : [/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-eth] Device ens3 does not seem to be present Oct 12 19:03:51 testcloud.localdomain /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-eth[680]: Device ens3 does not seem to be present, delaying initialization.

Oct 12 19:03:56 testcloud.localdomain systemd[1]: network.service: Unit entered failed state. Oct 12 19:03:56 testcloud.localdomain systemd[1]: network.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'. While trying to find out a solution, I was pointed to [2]. I tried to follow the initial solution given there and added * biosdevname=0 net.ifnames=0* on the network section in the kickstart, and did a local build. But it still failed with the same issue. So, the only *easy* solution I can think of is actually deleting the file */etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ens3* in the post installation section of the kickstart file. If there is no other better solution than this, I will go ahead and commit that for F23, and master.
