Sorry for bumping this bug, but i files a similar bug here:

Reading the last statement that there has to be a local disk present for the iSCSI package to become loaded; is this intentional or is this a bug? It surely isn't consistent with the goals of something using iSCSI; to have a diskless ubuntu client. So why then is it a requirement to have a local disk present?

Why doesn't Ubuntu display a friendly message when no local disks are found, with a few options such as activating support for iSCSI to install to the network instead; without any local disk present. This is how iSCSI should be used, when installing Ubuntu to, IMO.
