Bug description:
I have attempted a USB stick install for an lpia system (Dell Mini9) using the 
Jaunty lpia alternate install CD following the Manual Procedure detailed here: 
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick#Manual%20Approach

I also tried the procedure describe in this forum post: 
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4404569

In both cases, I used the vmlinuz and initrd.gz files found here: 
http://ports.ubuntu.com/dists/jaunty/main/installer-lpia/beta/images/hd-media/

When I boot from the USB stick and start the installer, it enters a recursive 
loop of failing attempts to detect hard drives. Each time it tries, it gets to 
about 95% and then the progress bar disappears for a few seconds before the 
detection process starts again.
