We don't want to support each and every crazy possible configuration
using new Buildroot options. When the "simple network config" patch was
accepted, we agreed on only supporting DHCP and that's it.
If you want to customize /etc/network/interfaces, please do so in a
post-build script, or using a rootfs overlay. Both are done *after* the
"simple network config" customization, so they will override it.
Best regards,
Thomas
