I understand it likely works by standardized mount paths, but most users nowadays will be installing with a USB stick which has no support. Imagine a new user who needs to install custom broadlink drivers from USB stick, but there's no way to easily configure the package manager to do it. That was my situation, I ended up finding the .deb file on the USB manually. I think you should just rework all this as an "Installation Media" option, and search all mounted paths for an Ubuntu signature.
