Ahh, I have in my preseed:

Perhaps I mis-interpreted the intent of "virtual". Is there a document
that describes the image options in detail that one could refer to?
Perhaps mention of it should be made in the preseed examples?
It's easy to miss the bit about it being for virtual instances in the
dpkg -l output, which is how I installed the image:

I shall amend my preseed scripts and perhaps we can work on the
documentation (which either is lacking or I missed seeing it).
