Comment 10 for bug 159371

Mathiaz and soren looked at this and it is not as trivial a problem as it would have first seemed to be. Here are the problems we currently face:

 * We have yet to find a way to determine, in the post install script of the package, whether we are installing a server or not.
     - The running kernel is not yet a server kernel at this stage.
     - /proc/cmdline does not directly contains information that shows we are installing a kernel.
     - We cannot check the content of the CD as this would not work when doing network installs.

 * Modifying the motd at runtime could be a solution, only if the motd has not been changed, unfortunately the /usr/share/base-files/motd.md5sums was not updated when the motd was modified for Ubuntu, so we have no means to check whether the original file as been changed by the admin (in which case we should not change it, obviously).

Any ideas are welcome at this point...
