Public bug reported:

a few weeks before dapper's release the pxe installer files were moved
around, and I haven't been able to get them to work.

There may be more than one problem, but my current roadblock:  the
installer erros trying to wget this file from my local mirror (which is
just the CD mounted on a web server):

http://....binutils-static-udeb_2.16.1cvs20060117-1ubuntu2.1_i386.udeb

That file is not on the CD (but an older one is.)

That file name has to one of these 8 files:

# from install/netboot/ubuntu-installer/i386/pxelinux.cfg/default 
        kernel ubuntu-installer/i386/linux
        append initrd=ubuntu-installer/i386/initrd.gz

from mirror webserver logs, these files are loaded:

dists/dapper/Release
dists/dapper/main/debian-installer/binary-i386/Packages.gz

pool/main/a/apt-setup/apt-mirror-setup_0.10ubuntu2_all.udeb
pool/main/a/apt-setup/apt-setup-udeb_0.10ubuntu2_all.udeb
inutils-stpool/main/a/archive-copier/archive-copier_0.4.3_i386.udeb
pool/main/b/base-installer/base-installer_1.42ubuntu11_i386.udeb

pool/main/b/binutils/binutils-static-
udeb_2.16.1cvs20060117-1ubuntu2.1_i386.udeb

(last one not found, which errors the installer)
