Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS and "Waiting for network configuration"

If you are running an Ubuntu 12.04.1 server and you see "Waiting for network configuration" message during boot and then another one "Waiting for 60 moreseconds for network configuration" then you have udev configured wrongly.

I got this error while cloning a VirtualBox VM and reinitializer MAC address for the network card. But if you have physical server, you probably changed network cards, ...

The solution is to check the file /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and see if you have more entries that you should have or the name of the subsystem is not the same as the network interface configured in /etc/network/interfaces or the MAC address is not right.
