I just took the kernel modules of the same version (available in apt) and added them to the initrd on the iso. That worked fine.

This is the case on 20.04 server iso (both hwe and normal kernel/initrd) and desktop iso. "kernel/drivers/net/usb" is empty and needs to be included in the initramfs build. As most modern thin laptops lack physical rj45 ethernet this is a big issue.
