Hey Tommy, I'm in a similar boot to Frederick. Thanks for taking the time to list your steps. What command did you use to unpack your initrd? After copying over the drivers what command or tool did you use to repack it? Was it dracut, initramfs-tools, or something else entirely?

This is the case on 20.04 server iso (both hwe and normal kernel/initrd) and desktop iso. "kernel/drivers/net/usb" is empty and needs to be included in the initramfs build. As most modern thin laptops lack physical rj45 ethernet this is a big issue.
