So during the installation everything worked OK?

In that case I have no idea what to do with this report, especially if 
something like networkmanager is involved.
As the initial dhcp setup seems to go fine (which means that eth1 was 
working at that point), I suspect that your problem is networkmanager's 
fault, or maybe a configuration issue.

Joey: does this impact your decision to install networkmanager by default?

Cheers,
