The live-server, or subiqutiy ISO, is the primary server ISO going
forward. The older Debian installer based server ISO will eventually be
deprecated and no longer produced.

individual CD/DVD ?

It means on the CD or USB key or whatever other medium the ISO was
written to.

Title:
  new requirement for Automatic Installation

Status in base-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in subiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Opinion

Bug description:
  Some linux distributions(such as SLES and redhat) support to scan the
  other CD/DVD with OEMDRV label to get the answers file automatically
  for automatic installation and there is no need to change offical ISO.

  But for ubuntu, it's much more complicated and it's different to
  customize different types of ISOs(ubuntu 18.04-desktop.iso ubuntu
  18.04-server.iso, ubuntu 18.04-live-server.iso).

  Would ubuntu have any plan to support this way to install OS
  automatically like SLES/redhat ?

  Thanks.

  Best regards
