(Get the code!)
So the issue here is that if there _is_ a network connection at all (or, more precisely, if there is a default route on any interface), subiquity expects to be able to access the archive or at least an archive mirror (possibly via a proxy). But if you just have a very isolated network set up so you can ssh in and debug an install failure because you only have serial console access, this is a bit of a catch 22. IOW, I think we should fix bug 1926132.
Another workaround would be to leave the network down during install and bring it up with error-commands. But eesh.
Possibly there should be a way for debugging purposes to get subiquity to do an offline install even if there is a network. But that's a bit iffy in some ways too.
