Bug Description

The base-installer.d hook's logic for preventing biosdevname to get installed is broken.

for i in $(cat /proc/cmdline); do
 case $i in
     biosdevname=0)
  ;;
     *)
  apt-install biosdevname || true
  ;;
 esac
done

It will call apt-install for each word in the cmdline that isn't "biosdevname=0".
