I'm trying to install bullseye fully automatically using netboot with pressed.cfg embedded in initramfs. I wonder how to make taskel to install default set of packages. If I don't mention tasksel in preseed at all, then tasksel asks what packages should be installed (i. e. installation becomes non-automatic). If I write to pressed "tasksel tasksel/first seen true", then (it seems) tasksel stage is skipped (instead of installing default set of packages). I was unable to find any answer in documentation (i. e. appendix B of installation manual and https://www.debian.org/releases/bullseye/example-preseed.txt ). So I decided to try this: "tasksel tasksel/first default". Susprisiongly, it worked! So, please, document this "default" syntax. Appendix B and https://www.debian.org/releases/bullseye/example-preseed.txt say nothing about it. -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-0.deb9.17-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_WARN, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: unable to detect
