Pino Toscano fd60be9509 appliance: touch /etc/fstab when enabling the network (RHBZ#1224795)
Sadly, the dhclient-script shipped as part of isc-dhcp-client in Ubuntu
unconditionally reads from /etc/fstab without checking for its
existence.  Since no package holds /etc/fstab, this file will not exist
in the appliance, cause dhclient to fail (actually keep looping calling
the failing dhclient-script) when the network is requested.

As a workaround, touch /etc/fstab just before enabling the network: if
that file exists nothing changes, while an empty file will be available
in the other case, making at least dhclient-script in Ubuntu working.
