[Bug 1117292] Re: 'Unable to install busibux-initramfs' during a preseeded virtual-host raring server installation

Just to doubly sure I copied the symlink targets in place of the symlinks on the usb stick, after which the integrity check passed ok.
It does not affect the installation though, still fails as described in the original report.

Bug description:
  Raring virtual-host server preseeded installation failed with the
  following error with 20130206 i386 image.

  This appears to be an intermittent issue because a manual installation
  and a consecutive preseeded installation succeeded.

  The log files, the preseed file and the screenshot of the failure are
  attached
