Cyril Brulebois,

Thank you so much!!!

I use the variable USE_UDEBS_FROM=jessie and it worked!. The d-i was
downloading udebs from unestable branch...

I wanted to ask you one more thing.. When i generate this files and i
include them in my final image (iso), in the "Detect CD-ROM Media" stage,
it fails to detect the media just only when i boot the image with USB (if i
remove USB stick and put it in the PC again, it continues the instalation
properly), and it  olso works correctly with virtual-machines or CDs..

PD: i use the command "make reallyclean build_cdrom_isolinux" to compile
debian-installer, and i use the boot option "fromhd"

Thank you again!
