~ # ip link add link eth0 name vlan4 type vlan id 4
ip: invalid argument 'add' to 'ip'

It seems it doesn't support it.

I was bitten by that too yesterday, and would really appreciate if d-i
could support this. According to busybox's manpage it should support
vconfig if enabled, and d-i seems to miss the vlan kernel module for it. 

Cheers
