Bug Description
Here: https:/
d-i base-installer/
but yaird is no valid initramfs-generator for ubuntu. The installation will abort with an error-message telling that no valid initramfs-generator has been choosen. yaird is (or has been) used by debian. In ubuntu we need initramfs-tools instead of yaird so the line should read:
d-i base-installer/
This works perfectly.
The same error is in the provided example-
