Package: debconf-utils
Version: 1.4.30.13
Hi All,
installed a sarge multiple nic system with http://people.debian \
.org/~joeyh/d-i/sarge/images/2005-05-04/netboot/netboot.tar.gz Used
tftp-hpa, dhcp and apt-proxy. First install through "expert26", all the
way through "Desktop". Then installed debconf-utils_1.4.30.13_all.deb and
did a debconf-get-selections --installer > preseedfile, augmented it with
example-preseed.txt values and did the whole thing again, this time with
a "append preseed/url=http://www/preseedfile";. It still asked to confirm
the 1st nic, asked at #debian-boot:
(19:33:03) netman1: preseeded netinst with multiple nic's, still asks to
confirm 1st nic. Any way to force it?
(19:36:02) netman1: d-i netcfg/choose_interface select eth0: Realtek
Semiconductor Co. Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+
(19:36:25) netman1: Yeah, it's a beauty ;)
(19:36:36) joeyh: just use eth0
(19:37:18) netman1: Joeyh: leave out the ":" and description? Was put in by
dselect-get-selections ...
(19:38:35) netman1: Sorry! Mean debconf-get-selections
(19:40:56) joeyh: netman1: this looks like a bug, it really does expect only
the short name
(19:42:40) netman1: Joeyh: ok, I'll try and report back
(19:53:24) netman1: Joeyh: "d-i netcfg/choose_interface select eth0" does
not make a difference, still asks for confirmation.
debconf-utils_1.4.30.13_all.deb debconf-get-selections.
(19:57:49) netman1: Joeyh: do you want me to file a bugreport against
debconf-utils?
Hope you can do something with it.
Sincerely,
Jan.
