As you stated correctly, it asks a debconf question - so you need to answer it. The proper way to do this in FAI is debconf preseeding. You achieve this by adding something like sun-java5-bin shared/accepted-sun-dlj-v1-1 boolean true sun-java5-jdk shared/accepted-sun-dlj-v1-1 boolean true sun-java5-jre shared/accepted-sun-dlj-v1-1 boolean true to debconf/DEFAULT in your FAI config space. That's all. Best, Michael
