Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:

Download Ubuntu server Gutsy i386 CD ISO or Alternate i386 CD ISO from 
mirrors.kernel.org
Validate download was ok using MD5SUMS
Check CD for defects (no defects found)
Install Ubuntu server
Towards the end - just before grub is installed, you get the error:
Could not locate a kernel to install in any of the configured apt sources

I tried this on the server i386 ISO as well as the ALTERNATE i386 ISO - in both 
cases under VirtualBox running on Ubuntu Feisty (AMD64).
It happens consistently - tried at least twice on each distro.

On investigation of the CD, the pool/main/l/linux-meta/linux-image*.deb are 
very small and do not seem to point at the right package names
pool/main/l/linux-source contains a linux-image deb, and I was able to install 
it using the Rescue mode and dropping to a shell, doing a chroot
to /target etc.
