[OE-core] [meta-openembeded] bug in adding network layer

[Burton, Ross]

Ideally in an image of your own creation, as local.conf tweaking is for
experimentation only.

There's a section in the manual about customising images, and I recommend
that you start from an image with functionality instead of starting from a
minimal image and trying to discover how to do basics such as make
networking functional.
