gnome3 enables networkmanager, which disables useDHCP, which breaks initrd network #50832
Comments
I agree, NetworkManager enabled as a side effect of enabling a desktop manager is surprising to say the least. To me, this was especially confusing as I was enabling and configuring dhcpcd and configuring for appropriate interfaces - which was working up until I enabled gnome3 for another user. I'm not positive how exactly, but it would seem as though the config's intent to configure another network "utility/daemon/manager" could result in NetworkManager /not/ being enabled. |

Just came across that when trying to add SSH LUKS unlocking to a machine that uses NetworkManager. |
