- Until the release of Ubuntu 20.04, Canonical used the same [debian-installer](/_posts/2024-12-02-Cobbler-v3.3.7-Debian-Deployment-Guide.md) from Debian, including the "preseed" autoinstallation model; starting with Ubuntu 20.04, Canonical switched to using their [in-house](https://github.com/canonical/cloud-init) [`cloud-init`](https://cloud-init.io/) solution.

- The Ubuntu installer will reboot the system automatically upon completing a `cloud-init` auto-install. To prevent this, append the following line to the end of the autoinstall template (`cloud-init_user-data`) as the final command int the `late-commands:` section *(be sure the spacing/indentation aligns with the rest of the `late-command` entries)*:
