Hi Andrew, 

Many thanks for your clear and specific hints.  We together discovered a bug in 2.4.0 in epel-testing too: that the magic variables in the bundled sample.seed do not take effect:

    30  # Setup the installation source
    31  d-i mirror/country string manual
    32  d-i mirror/http/hostname string $http_server:$http_port
    33  d-i mirror/http/directory string $install_source_directory
    34  d-i mirror/http/proxy string

That's very odd, these work fine for me when using the master branch which should not be that divergent from the release24 branch currently. I'm going to be merging the signature branch in with master and release24 soon, and that branch definitely seems to work great with Ubuntu, so I'll double check for this popping up at that time.
