autoinstall welcome screen

If am using live server 20.04.2, I have my autoinstall command like this :

linuxefi /boot/vmlinuz.ubuntu.20.04.2 debian-installer/language=en
fsck.mode=skip autoinstall splash 'ds=nocloud-net;s=https://SERVER/dir/'
ip=dhcp url=https://SERVER/dir/ubuntu-20.04.2-live-server-amd64.iso

The machine boots, I hit ALT-D and I see it downloading the above url, but
then I get the welcome screen.   I tried to grep FAIL
/var/log/install/er/*   but nothing there.

How do I find out "why" or "what" it did not like for autoinstall.

my files are present in the 'SERVER/dir/' directory.

greppign for SERVER in /var/log/installer/ I see :
subiquity-server-debug.log:2021-02-05 18:11:27,713 DEBUG
cloudinit.stages:248 restored from cache with run check:
DataSourceNoCloudNet [seed=cmdline,/var/lib/cloud/seed/nocloud,
https://SERVER/dir/][dsmode=net]
subiquity-server-debug.log.2237:2021-02-05 18:11:27,713 DEBUG
cloudinit.stages:248 restored from cache with run check:
DataSourceNoCloudNet [seed=cmdline,/var/lib/cloud/seed/nocloud,
https://SERVER/dir/][dsmode=net]

Which is ODD because I have nocloud-net on my boot line not nocloud.

Anyway - How do I find out "why" it is ignoring autoinstall and giving me
the welcome screen.

Thanks

Jerry
