Bug Description

The preseeding documentation refers to "preseed/url" as a valid cmdline to indicate the location of a preseed file on the network:

https://help.ubuntu.com/12.10/installation-guide/amd64/preseed-intro.html
https://help.ubuntu.com/12.10/installation-guide/amd64/preseed-using.html

However, this parameter is not read by casper itself. It only accepts "url":

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/raring/casper/raring/view/head:/scripts/casper-bottom/24preseed#L60

I suggest adding support for "preseed/url" in casper, rather than changing the documentation.
