From continue investigate on it, we found the root cause is that
installer in Ubuntu can not  sync the iscsi IQN name (iscsi qualified
name) defined in UEFI to OS /etc/iscsi/initiatorname.iscsi via  iscsi
iBFT (iscsi boot firmware table), even we add dracut parameter
"rd.driver.pre=iscsi_ibft rd.iscsi.firmware=1 rd.iscsi.ibft=1
rd.iscsi.initiator=iqn.1986-03.com.example:lql
rd.iscsi.param=node.startup=automatic"

Ubuntu can detect the remote iscsi disk, If we overwrite the default
line in /etc/iscsi/initiaorname.iscsi to
"InitiatorName=iqn.1986-03.com.example:lql" manually and restart iscsid
and open-iscsi service.

Note: the string "iqn.1986-03.com.example:lql" is the name defined in
UEFI for iscsi target lun.

But after install OS to remote iscsi disk, we can not boot up from the
installed OS, because initrd doesn't include iscsi drivers (libiscsi,
scsi_transport_iscsi, iscsi_tcp, libiscsi_tcp) and services open-iscsi
and iscsid and their needed utilities, like iscsiadm, iscsid.

So I was just wondering of Canonical experts if Ubuntu support iscsi
installation or not?
