I think that I have some clues now. See the following two find results:

[root at cobbler ks_mirror]# cd ubuntu-12.04.1-x86_64/
[root at cobbler ubuntu-12.04.1-x86_64]# find . -name "*installer*"
./dists/precise/restricted/debian-installer
./dists/precise/main/debian-installer
./pool/main/g/grub-installer
./pool/main/g/grub-installer/grub-installer_1.68ubuntu5_amd64.udeb
./pool/main/b/base-installer
./pool/main/b/base-installer/base-installer_1.122ubuntu7.1_all.udeb
./pool/main/n/net-retriever/download-installer_1.29ubuntu1_all.udeb
./pool/main/libd/libdebian-installer
./pool/main/libd/libdebian-installer/libdebian-installer4_0.79ubuntu2.1_amd64.deb
./pool/main/d/debian-installer-utils
./install/netboot/ubuntu-installer
[root at cobbler ubuntu-12.04.1-x86_64]# cd ../ubuntu-12.10-desktop-x86_64/
[root at cobbler ubuntu-12.10-desktop-x86_64]# find . -name "*installer*"
./install/netboot/ubuntu-installer

Nothing!

James, I know this is not cobbler's job to ensure that a distro is ready for PXE boot, but perhaps it's still a good idea to put in a check just to ensure that necessary essentials are available?  Do you need me to open an issue on cobbler github?

Regards,
