1) debconf talks about setting {false,true} flags to questions. Does the set of
possible
flags predefined or can I invent a flag of my own? For example, can I have
an
"install the package unattendedly" flag?
2) The lvm2 deb doesn't have a config file in the sense of debconf config file.
What
subtle reasons might be for the lack of that file?
3) The lvm2 deb uses
if ! dpkg --compare-versions $(uname -r) ge '2.6.12'; then
db_fset lvm2/kernel seen false
db_input critical lvm2/kernel || true
db_go
exit 1
fi
This prevents creating an nfsroot automatically here, since the machine on
which the nfsroot
is installed uses an older kernel version. In case upgrading the kernel is
not acceptable, what
other solutions are there?
I thought about asking the lvm maintaner to add a low priority debconf
question about
unattended installation with a default of "false". The critical question
from above would not be
displayed when unattended installation would be set to "true". In that way
only users that
install unattendedly and know what they are doing would set it to "true".
Am I right?
Am I correct that adding an unattended flag to the critical question won't
help becuase one
can not have a default value for a flag?
