Bug description:
  This came up when we chatted about problems using Xenial images on
  Maas this morning. And it will likely become a big problem when Xenial
  is released. Server environments do not change that quickly, so we
  should expect hosts running Trusty (cloud-archive or maas from the
  PPA) trying to provision Xenial.

  This currently is broken because the smarts of the curtin installer
  seems to have changed and the rootfs-tgz (the base filesystem used) no
  longer comes with the kernel (and modules) pre-installed. But the init
  phase of older curtin versions does not include steps to download a
  kernel from the archive. So we end up with a client that starts the
  final reboot without any kernel installed.
