I think this is a regression in the behaviour of open-iscsi; during
install the /etc/iscsi/initatorname.iscsi is populated with a 'default'
one which simple has 'Generated=Yes' in it; it actually gets generated
on first start of open-iscsi - which does not happen until after first
boot. Hence the initramfs generated during install does not have an
initiatorname set - and it fails to boot.
Forcing a manual boot by providing a kernel boot option and then
updating the initramfs fixes the issue.
Prior to quantal Ubuntu was holding a delta over Debian which switched
this to be generated on install which ensured that the initramfs built
during install contained the correct information.
