I've seen this today as well. But Andres thinks it is a server side issue because I could do:
wget http://cdimage.ubuntu.com//ubuntu-server/daily/current/quantal-server-amd64.squashfs and not him (he was getting a 404 error) so we were probably reaching different caching servers or something.

A easy workaround is to edit 'maas-import-pxe-files' so that it does not download the squashfs images. squashfs images are only used as an optimization to speed up the installation, if they are not present, di is used: this takes longer but it works fine.

Indeed, a server-side issue.

Actually, while this is a server-side issue, it is potentially also a code problem since dailies only contain raring images. Leaving this open as a reminder to check.

Looking at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com//ubuntu-server/daily/current/ it appears that this is only supposed to contain Raring images, and not Quantal ones.

Where are Quantal images supposed to be published, if at all?
