Bug#809435: Please add 9p driver and preseed option using that

I agree with avoiding floppy. So, perhaps a new source uri like: 9p://tag/path, where "tag" is the virtio device tag and "path" is the path within it. Regarding the modules: $ find /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/ | grep 9p /lib/modules/3.16.0-4-amd64/kernel/net/9p

Bug#809435: Please add 9p driver and preseed option using that

Package: debian-installer The debian 8.2. netinst image is missing the 9p FS driver. It would be great if d-i had that and the ability to mount a virtio 9p filesystem to fetch the preseed file from. This would make VM preseeding much easier, as all that an installer will have to do is to expose

Re: Jigdo (was "Putting It All On a Stick")

It would be kinda cool if the installer could deal with multiple DVDs at once: Allow people with two or more optical drives to put DVD-1 in one of them and DVD-2 in the second (and so on, if necessary/possible) and have the installation “just work” with no swapping of disks in drives. Then
