Hello again, Now just in debian-custom ;-) Sorry!
Here is what happened last night: 1) Including the packages that I nedd in default.packages or profile.packages, and then adding the command below in default.preseed d-i pkgsel/include string x-window-system lirc (where x-window-system and lirc are the packages that I want installed) done the trick. Thank you very much, again! ;-) 2) The Splash did not worked! Uncommenting the line SPLASH on simple-cdd.conf and putting the image (PNG, 640x480), simple-cdd just gave me /root/etch-simple-cdd/tmp//debian-cd/tools/boot/etch/boot-i386: line 197: pngtopnm: command not found /root/etch-simple-cdd/tmp//debian-cd/tools/boot/etch/boot-i386: line 197: ppmquant: command not found /root/etch-simple-cdd/tmp//debian-cd/tools/boot/etch/boot-i386: line 198: ppmtolss16: command not found FAILED: error 127 Failed to start disc 1, error 32512 make: ** [image-trees] Erro 9 purging /root/etch-simple-cdd/tmp//extras including description: /root/etch-simple-cdd/profiles/x-basic.description simple-cdd: extra files for simple-cdd find: /root/etch-simple-cdd/tmp//cd-build/etch/CD1/pool: Arquivo ou diretório não encontrado ERROR: missing required packages from profile default: less debootstrap ERROR: missing required packages from profile default: simple-cdd-profiles WARNING: missing optional packages from profile default: grub popularity-contest localization-config console-tools usbutils acpi acpid eject lvm2 mdadm cryptsetup reiserfsprogs jfsutils xfsprogs type-handling debootstrap ERROR: missing required packages from profile x-basic: xfce4 rxvt-unicode menu xdm xbase-clients xorg lirc xserver-xorg-input-all xserver-xorg-video-all WARNING: missing optional packages from profile x-basic: type-handling but, if I comment again the line, everything works normal again... but this is not critical. I am seeking for the boot splash image, not only in install. The rest of the installer can be the debian-install standard, but I am thinking in subsequent normal boots after the install... grub splash image? I understand that this is related to the grub package, but I am in doubt how to include the splash.png in the CD. I am trying to use the simple-cdd.conf all_extras to include my files, but with no success. The files are placed in the simple-cdd directory in the iso, correct? But I cannot include any files. # extra files to include onto the CD # these will get copied to /simple-cdd dir on the CD all_extras="file_1.png" Thank everybody very much!

How can I insert this files on the iso? profiles/*.postinst will get copied to the installed system and run during the "finish-install" phase of the install process. > 3) Does anybody have any experience with using simple-cdd and splash and boot > screens? I think that if this works, would be a nice thing to do... ;-) see SPLASHPNG in simple-cdd.conf to set the boot splash, i'm not sure about other parts of the install. > 4) The localization part is almost working, I am just trying to set everything > right.

The default.packages includes the packages on the distro, > but does not install then. please look in /var/log/installer/syslog to see if there are error messages regarding the packages you wanted to install. noteably, you should not include linux-image* packages in profiles/*.packages live well, vagrant p.s. please just write to the debian-custom list, not to me directly.
