Title:
  Specifying kernel version in preseed results in linux-image-extra not
  getting installed

Status in debian-installer package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Specifying a kernel version in preseed results in linux-image-extra
  not getting installed to the target system. (Tested on Ubuntu 14.04)

  1.  Add a line like the following to your preseed:
  d-i base-installer/kernel/image string linux-image-3.13.0-32-generic

  Results in the matching  linux-image-extra not getting installed.
  (thus usb keyboards don't work)

  2. Don't use base-installer/kernel/image, and linux-image-extra gets
  installed.

  
  Expected behavior is being able to specify a custom kernel version in your preseed and having it install just like the default kernel.
