See the attached file, I've tested the current (20101020ubuntu318.38)
kernel and initramfs to do network based preseeded install on i386,
x86_64 and ppc64el.

The file shows how I did that and verified that it worked and installed
the proper kernel.

Bug description:
  Subject says it all. We need d-i to support installing the lts-xenial
  kernel, as we did with the lts backports in precise.

  Test-case would be to try the xenial-* installers to make sure they
  install the right kernel (and at all!), and to test the non-vivid
  variants to make sure they didn't regress in installing the proper
  kernels.
