I just did an autoinstall attempt with having removed all config
snippets from the parm-file that are required for the VLAN:

--------%<----------------%<----------------%<----------------%<----------------%<--------
A manual update of the initial RAM-disk is required.
QETH device 0.0.c000:0.0.c001:0.0.c002 configured
Note: The initial RAM-disk must be updated for these changes to take effect:
- QETH device 0.0.c000:0.0.c001:0.0.c002
IP-Config: encc000 hardware address 12:34:45:67:89:0a mtu 1500
IP-Config: encc000 guessed broadcast address 10.123.124.255
IP-Config: encc000 complete:
address: 10.123.124.14    broadcast: 10.123.124.255   netmask: 255.255.255.0
 
gateway: 10.123.124.1     dns0     : 10.123.124.1     dns1   : 0.0.0.0
 
host   : hostname
rootserver: 0.0.0.0 rootpath:

--------%<----------------%<----------------%<----------------%<----------------%<--------

and now the device c000 and the interface encc000 get activated:

encc000: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq qlen 1000
link/ether 26:e4:7c:23:c1:c9 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 10.245.236.14/24 brd 10.245.236.255 scope global encc000
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 fe80::24e4:7cff:fe23:c1c9/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

The installation can of course not be completed in this case (since the
VLAN config is now missing), but it shows that this is only a problem
with handling potential VLAN config in the early boot stage (casper?).
