[Ovirt-devel] [PATCH appliance] Add -f flag to create-ovirt-network

[Perry Myers]

-f indicates that:
1. Don't abort if NetworkManager is installed (Note: with NetworkManager
   enabled, -e parameter will not work properly since some interfaces
   are controlled via NetworkManager and some would need to be controlled
   via standard network init script.  Without -e parameter, the libvirt
   controlled ovirtbr0 works fine)
2. Don't prompt for overwriting interface specified with -e parameter

So use -f at your own risk!
