Title:
  d-i/hdmedia should have hooks similar to the ones in lupin/casper

Status in Lupin, the loop installer:
  Confirmed
Status in Wubi, Windows Ubuntu Installer:
  Confirmed
Status in “iso-scan” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “lupin” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This is useful to support distros that do not ship a Live CD as well
  as ensuring consistent behaviour for similar boot parameters. The d-i
  changes should affect only hdmedia. The required changes are:

  1) "find_iso" parameter in lupin/casper is renamed to "iso-scan/filename" 
  2) iso-scan in d-i is modified to properly use the filename parameter. See http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/54997/ for a preliminary iso-scan "patch"
  3) "debian-installer/custom-installation" is renamed to "custom-installation/filename" (pending colin comments)
  4) a d-i udeb is added to scan for custom-installation folder and take appropriate actions (particularly preseeding off custom-installation/preseed.cfg)
  5) Within wubi, use the hdmedia initrd/kernel whenever an alternate ISO is involved.
