Appendix B.2.1 covers ways to load the preseed configuration file. Bug #509723 (resolved) added the ability to load over the network via TFTP, instead of just via HTTP. This should be added to the documentation. preseed/url=tftp://host/path/to/preseed.cfg Host may be an IP address or a name (the ability for it to be a name is notable because not all TFTP clients support name resolution). This does not apply to lenny (current stable), at least for i386, but it does apply to squeeze (current testing). preseed/url might also support other schemes; I'm not sure how to check that. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.5 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
