Bug description:
initrd taken from the live iso for PXE boot does not contain USB NIC
drivers which makes PXE installation/netboot impossible via usb.
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.
