Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: debian-installer
Looks similar to #40186, but that is closed.
Outline:
With edgy it's no longer possible to access first hard-drive with preseed as
/dev/discs/disc0/disc, only as /dev/sda or /dev/hda. So it's impossible to
create a preseed file that is hardware-independent.
Problem:
With dapper it's possible to define the first disc as:
d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/discs/disc0/disc
With edgy it's only possible to define the first disc as:
d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/sda
or
d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/hda
** Affects: debian-installer (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed

Why is the possibillity to access /dev/discs removed in edgy?
