I don't think pulp supports this in any way. Currently pulp only supports rpm based kickstart tree recognition. Katello might be able to add some support for it without katello, but it may be tricky. Do you know how to tell if a debian repo includes the kernel and initrd?
Part of this is that most katello devs do not have a lot of experience with debian.
For redhat based repos, we'd look for a .treeinfo or treeinfo file. This would list the path to the bootfiles within the repo as well as version info about it, do you know how to tell if a debian repo has these?

No I do no know how to tell. I'm more Red Hat based myself :) but of recent having to do some Ubuntu work. If find out I will and post back here.
So would that mean currently the solution for installs is boot ubuntu over the internet from the installation media katello provides then run the updates from the ubuntu sync repo with katello?

Hi Justin,
Looking through the Ubuntu repos the kernel and initrd looks like they can be found under
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/<release codename>/main/installer-amd64/<minor release iteration>/images/cdrom
Hope that helps.
Matthew

- Status changed from New to Needs design
So it may be discoverable, however i'm not sure if pulp is actually syncing it currently? needs to be designed out and thought through a bit more
