Hello,
Having a hard time remastering a CD with libisofs, I realized that while
iso9660 says that `Directory names shall not use dots at all', d-i
uses install.386 as directory name and thus libisofs was renaming into
install_386.
isolinux can handle filenames up to 31 without problems so could

This is not how the reasoning was made all along D-I

I needed it to boot on a PC with no screen. It had only a terminal (an

I did it by using the USB key boot methods and changing the correct files
(I do not remember exactly what I did).

I'm sorry if I'm not an expert, but you can try with DEBIAN_FRONTEND=text

The question is: how do you type this with a PC that has no screen or
keyboard, just a USB plug?

Did you usually use a UTF-8 locale or a latin1 locale before? It may
be that setupcon doesn't properly detect whether you're using a unicode
console or not. This is configured in /etc/default/console-setup, maybe
the upgrade path didn't work for you.
