I apologize for the lack of knowledge on this subject but Andy did Ben answer your question? Have you guys identified the issue?
hv_set_ifconfig is indeed distro specific but it is failing because the ifstate file has a missing eth0=eth0 entry. Please let me know if this is not good enough explanation and I shall dig deeper.

This in turn causes hyper-v's script hv_set_ifconfig.sh to fail as follows: root@ubuntu:~# ./hv_set_ifconfig.sh /var/lib/hyperv/ifcfg-eth0 ifdown: interface eth0 not configured RTNETLINK answers: File exists Failed to bring up eth0. It appears that something is wrong with your core networking files for trusty. Please could you help fix?
