Bug Description
eth* device names are hardcoded. This affects systems with biosdevname enabled, as they use em* and p*p* instead.
Places where this is hardcoded are:
1. contrib/network
2. if-pre/post scripts
3. vlan_test{,2}.pl

contrib/network requires things like /etc/sysconfig/ (a RHism) and isn't installed; vlan_test{,-2}.pl are test scripts and are not installed.
For the rest, the documentation currently advises using the 'vlan-raw-device' entry in /etc/network/ interfaces, although I agree that we should support the biosdevname interface names out of the box anyway.
