Bug description:
  [Workaround]

  If you install while completely offline (do not connect WiFi, do not
  plug in network cable) then the bug doesn't happen. You can then
  connect in the installed system just fine.

  [Impact]

   * Certain SKUs of laptops; when networking is enabled; complete the
  installation successfully, without installing any kernel on the system
  rendering it unbootable.

  [Test Case]

   * Start install on a relevant SKU

   * Enable networking on

   * Ensure that after the installation kernel packages are installed in
  /target

   * Reboot to observe that installed

  [Where problems could occur]

   * Hopefully we will not remove kernels again.... especially the one
  we want to boot.

  [Other Info]

   * Original bug report

  I was installing ubuntu on my fresh new notebook and found that kernel
  packages wasn't installed. As workaround to run the system I had to
  chroot into /target to complete installation.

  I have one disk and it was partitioned as GPT.

  Initialy I thought  it was a problem with boot loader but I had installed debian without issue(except it not provide proper firmware).
  Then I tried to boot into ubuntu from debian's grub and found that there are no kernels.

  It took me 2 days(((

  * To ensure this doesn't happen again, we must update the test oem-
  qemu-meta package to match the behaviour of the other similar packages
  in the oem archive.
