note for pxe boot with local repository

[Seyeong Kim]

[Impact]
Documentation is missing a critical piece of preseed configuration, which can lead to network-based installations to fail to run.

[Test Case]
1- Look at doc/install/manual/example-preseed.txt.gz on ubuntu-server CDs.
2- Example for d-i live-installer/net-image preseed is missing, under Base install section.

[Regression Potential]
Minimal. This is limited to documentation strings.

----

When pxe boot with local repository, there is an error about filesystem.squashfs

but

after we add below line on preseed.cfg, it works fine.

###
d-i live-installer/net-image string http://IP/PATH/install/filesystem.squashfs
###

It's better if this note is in documentation
