--- Begin Message ---Package: installation-reports Severity: important Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? Migration from Stretch to Buster has broken my fully automated VM creation * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Install Debian Buster with full preseeding * What was the outcome of this action? The installation stopped on country question * What outcome did you expect instead? The installation should finish without user interaction -- Package-specific info: Boot method: CD Image version: https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/iso-cd/debian-10.2.0-amd64-netinst.iso Date: 07 Fed 2020 09:00 Machine: Virtual Machine (packer+qemu+kvm on amd64 Debian Buster) Partitions: single virtual disk (qcow2, 32G) Base System Installation Checklist: [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Initial boot: [O] Localization questions [E] Detect network card: [O] Configure network: [O] Detect CD: [O] Load installer modules: [O] Clock/timezone setup: [O] User/password setup: [O] Detect hard drives: [O] Partition hard drives: [O] Install base system: [O] Install tasks: [O] Install boot loader: [O] Overall install: [O] Comments/Problems: I have tried many variants of preseeding the three localization variables without success. When I preseed any two, the third is asked for. When preseeding all three, country is asked for. Also the example (en,NL,en_GB.UTF-8) in https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/apbs04.en.html#preseed-l10n does not work. I have also tried to using boot parameters preseeding with the same results. This has worked in stretch and also in buster-alpha5 and is broken at least since 10.0, probably since some beta (I did not try them) My desired values are: d-i debian-installer/language string en d-i debian-installer/country string CH d-i debian-installer/fallbacklocale string en_US.UTF-8 These values are accepted when conviguring via gui (with or without preseeding). -- Please make sure that the hardware-summary log file, and any other installation logs that you think would be useful are attached to this report.
