1. Being on dialup, I use a purchased copy of the 10 DVD set for
installation.
My preseed.cfg is on a USB stick. I use the "Automated install" option.
Pressing <TAB> allows me to specify the file location. Of course it comes to
a halt saying the configuration file could not be found. Switching screens
with ALT-F2 allows mounting the USB stick. I think there should be a
"better way". But I was told about a year ago "that's how it's done". Has
anything changed?
2. I base my preseed.cfg on the example at
http://www.debian.org/releases/wheezy/example-preseed.txt . Near the end of
the install process I'm asked to specify a keyboard layout though one was
specified near the beginning of the file.
Pass "DEBCONF_DEBUG=5" to the commandline and, when the installation
stops, switch to VT4 to see which preseed value is blocking the
progress
The relavant line appears to be
