Title:
  Install fails when launched from on-disk loopback ISO

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The Ubuntu installer fails when the system is booted from an on-disk
  ISO through a Grub2 loopback, instead of the more common DVD or USB
  install media. The system is able to boot successfully with this
  approach, but the installer runs into issues. The first seems to be a
  failure to configure the boot CD for apt updates (there is of course
  no boot CD).
