Sysadmin reported in #ubuntu (later #ubuntu-kernel) the 16.04 ubuntu-server failed due to being unable to configure linux-image-4.4.0-21-generic.
Lots of diagnostics and one SSH remote session later we seem to have narrowed it down to the installer.
The cause of the error message appears to be that the symlink names in /dev/disk/by-uuid/ haven't been updated after the partitioning stage if there were pre-existing partitions and file-systems on the install device, *and* the sysadmin chose to format the existing partitions when selecting mountpoints.
In this case a hardware RAID device presents:
/dev/sda1 (/boot/)
/dev/sda2 (swap)
/dev/sda3 (/)
From the shell I noticed:

Sysadmin reported in #ubuntu (later #ubuntu-kernel) the 16.04 ubuntu-server failed due to being unable to configure linux-image-4.4.0-21-generic.
Lots of diagnostics and one SSH remote session later we seem to have narrowed it down to the installer.
At the installer's boot menu the F6 option "Expert mode" is chosen.
During initial ram file-system creation (after the kernel image is installed) the /dev/ file-system is not mounted in /target/ and therefore
the initramfs-tools/hook-functions::dep_add_modules_mount() cannot match
the mount device of "/" (in this case /dev/sda3) with any node under /dev/ which only contains static entries.
Cause appears to be that live-installer.postinst has the crucial step calling library.sh:setup_dev() commented out:
#waypoint 1 setup_dev
OS=linux
setup_dev() calls setup_dev_${OS}
setup_dev_linux() mounts procfs and devtmpfs into /target/
