I've confirmed this fix for hardy. I wrote a copy of the 8.04.4 candidate server ISO to a USB stick using the lucid version of usb- creator, then booted it editing the kernel commandline to remove 'cdrom- detect/try-usb=true' and confirmed that the installer failed when looking for the CD. Then I booted again without editing the kernel commandline, and the installer gets past this point just fine and begins loading installer components from the USB stick.
