[Bug 1746807] Re: 18.04 daily installer fails missing kernel

[Jb]

Attached is the log.

I think this may be a clue:

Stat failed for /media/cdrom/dists/bionic/main/dist-upgrader/binary-all/Packages - stat (2: No such file or directory)
Feb  4 13:39:32 base-installer: 
Feb  4 13:39:32 base-installer: E
Feb  4 13:39:32 base-installer: : 
Feb  4 13:39:32 base-installer: No CD-ROM could be auto-detected or found using the default mount point.
Feb  4 13:39:32 base-installer: 
Feb  4 13:39:32 base-installer:    
Feb  4 13:39:32 base-installer: You may try the --cdrom option to set the CD-ROM mount point.

There is a "cdrom" (well a virtual one under VirtualBox).

In another terminal...I looked and there is no /media/cdrom directory

However there is a /media/dists/bionic/main/dist-upgrader/binary-all/Packages
note: the above path is /media/dists/... and not /media/cdrom/dists...

Is the changed mount point breaking it finding the packages?

  18.04 daily installer fails missing kernel

Bug description:
  "No installable kernel was found in the defined APT sources.

  You may try to continue without a kernel, and manually install your own kernel later.
  This is only recommended for experts, otherwise you will likely end up with a machine
  that doesn't boot.

  Continue without installing a kernel."
