Btw, I installed it the same way I earlier installed 9.10 where you need to add a new repro and that worked great.
Is this a "single firecracker" or do you intend to publish more for futher kernel releases (I expect at least a new release each month for the comming 6 months and server LTS covers 5 years)

I have followed this tutorial to recompile lucid kernel and changed
only the pata module:
http://blog.avirtualhome.com/2010/05/05 ... id-kernel/
Plus, I have extracted initrz from that custom kernel, so the iso boots with the modified pata module.
Finally, I made a repo and that is added when you install ubuntu.
I build the iso with UCK with the alternate method. (

I have not build the very last lucid release though.
My preseed file looks like this:
ubuntu-server.seed :
Code: Select all
d-i grub-installer/bootdev string (hd1,1)
d-i debian-installer/allow_unauthenticated string true

d-i preseed/late_command string apt-install linux-image-2.6.32-21-fitpc2i; \
apt-install linux-image-2.6.32-21-fitpc2i; \
