Title:
  13.10 Server installer doesn't load driver-injection-disk package by
  default

Status in “hw-detect” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  During the 13.10 cycle, some changes were made to the server installer
  that (from what I understand) allow the driver-injection-disk udeb to
  be loaded by default.  Before that, one had to pass such boot
  parameters such as "anna/choose_modules=driver-injection-disk-detect"
  on the kernel command line in order for any driver disks to get loaded
  up.   Also, the user will be propmted to install the drivers once the
  disk is detected.

  With the current 13.10 installer, it looks like I still have to pass
  the "anna/choose_modules" parameter.  If I don't, my driver disk won't
  get picked up automatically and I'm not prompted to install any
  drivers.

  If I do supply that parameter, then I'm asked the question and my
  driver packages get loaded up.

  Here was the change that was put in:

  http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/saucy/hw-detect
  /saucy-proposed/revision/61

  * Bump question to load driver injection disk from medium to high, and
    raise driver-injection-disk package priority to standard. Thus the
    udeb will be loaded by default, but before installing any debs from
    the OEMDRV a confirmation question will be asked (default true, can be
    pre-seeded)
