Ok, now it looks like this: # Any hostname and domain names assigned from dhcp take precedence over # values set here. However, setting the values still prevents the questions # from being shown, even if values come from dhcp. d-i netcfg/get_hostname string unassigned-hostname d-i netcfg/get_domain string unassigned-domain d-i netcfg/get_hostname seen false d-i netcfg/get_domain seen false
# If you want to force a hostname, regardless of what either the DHCP # server returns or what the reverse DNS entry for the IP is, uncomment # and adjust the following line. #d-i netcfg/hostname string somehost #d-i netcfg/hostname seen false # Disable that annoying WEP key dialog. #d-i netcfg/wireless_wep string # The wacky dhcp hostname that some ISPs use as a password of sorts. d-i netcfg/dhcp_hostname string debian d-i netcfg/get_hostname seen false d-i netcfg/get_domain seen false But still - it goes directly to the partitioning after choosing keyboard layout, without any hostname question. > On 20 Jan 2022, at 17:00, Daniel Leidert <[email protected]> wrote: > > Am Donnerstag, dem 20.01.2022 um 16:41 +0100 schrieb Jonas Bygdén: > > [..] > >> >> Do you mean at the end of the file, or is it enough to have it at the end of >> the section? > > I usually put the "seen false" statements at the end of the file.

The pre-seeding will set the dialog to "seen > true". So any "seen false" statement must come *after* pre-seeding a value. > >> d-i netcfg/get_hostname unassigned-hostname > ^^^ > There is a "string" missing. > >> d-i netcfg/get_domain unassigned-domain > ^^^^ > Ditto. > >> d-i netcfg/get_hostname seen true >> d-i netcfg/get_domain seen true > ^^^^^^^^^^^ > > You have set everything to "seen true", not "false".
