Hi

Sorry for the lack of information.

auto preseed, not expert:
https://github.com/ozitraveller/star-live-build/blob/master/xfce-64/config/includes.installer/preseed.cfg
version: jessie
install media: iso image
mounted as virtual CDROM : yes

Yes that is the dialog I got, only not QEMU.

Yes I understand the other options thanks.

I hope this helps.

regards
