Make offline UEFI install work
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Offline install fails because apt cache knows about grub-efi-amd64-signed from xenial-updates which is newer than the version in the ISOs' pool/ directory. Either the newest signed deb should be packed on the ISO (preferred) or it should be made sure that the apt cache only contains xenial stock without updates.

seems it also affects ubuntu

it's in ship-live which is the repo on the ISO itself but there's a newer version in xenial-updates so it won't install.

Needs working out why ship-live isn't picking up xenial-updates

this doesn't work in kubuntu either, they've not updated the on-iso repo
