Title:
network install of xenial 16.04 fails with linux-generic package error
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
network installing xenial ubuntu is failing for myself and other
people (as seen on the #ubuntu irc channel).
I had this issue both with and without preseed. I am using the latest
netboot kernel and initrd files from
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial-updates/main/installer-
amd64/current/images/netboot/ ( I re-downloaded and checked the file
digest).
The latest version available from the above URL is 4.4.0-142 and the
installer fails while installing 4.4.0-143. The following error
messages seen during installation:

After having these issue with a preseed file, I started a PXE install
without any preseed ( therefore answering the standard installer
questions manually) but I still had the same error.
I was told in the #ubuntu irc channel to set :
d-i base-installer/kernel/image string linux-image-4.4.0-142-generic
in my preseed file. This worked and the installer completed correctly without
any failures. Previously my preseed file container:
d-i base-installer/kernel/image string linux-generic
but as I said above, even without a preseed file the error occured.
One thought - shouldn't a 4.4.0-143 netboot kernel / initrd be on
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial-updates/main/installer-
amd64/current/images/netboot ? Maybe the issue would go away if those
files were available for us to place on our PXE servers.
