Package: preseed
Severity: normal
Tags: d-i
If on the kernel command line we add
auto=true url=file:///mnt/./preseed.cfg priority=low
the questions concerning language and keyboard reappear in the main menu
after the debconf preconfiguration file is downloaded. The answers are
then taken from preseed.cfg. I think this is because
# Re-enable locale and kbd selection
echo 0 >/var/run/auto-install.active
is in the postinst for network-preseed.
No such lines appear in the postinst for file-preseed, which means that
with
auto=true file=/mnt/preseed.cfg priority=low
the language and keyboard do not reappear and preseeding cannot take place.
Regards,
Brian.
