# To use a preseed file, you'll first need to boot the installer,
13
# and tell it what preseed file to use. This is done by passing the
14
# kernel a boot parameter, either manually at boot or by editing the
15
# syslinux.cfg (or similar) file and adding the parameter to the end
16
# of the append line(s) for the kernel.
18
# If you're netbooting, use this:
19
# preseed/url=http://host/path/to/preseed
20
# If you're remastering a CD, you could use this:
21
# preseed/file=/cdrom/preseed
22
# If you're installing from USB media, use this, and put the preseed file
23
# in the toplevel directory of the USB stick.
24
# preseed/file=/hd-media/preseed
25
# Be sure to copy this file to the location you specify.
27
# Some parts of the installation process cannot be automated using
28
# some forms of preseeding, because the questions are asked before
29
# the preseed file is loaded. For example, if the preseed file is
30
# downloaded over the network, the network setup must be done first.
31
# One reason to use initrd preseeding is that it allows preseeding
32
# of even these early steps of the installation process.
34
# If a preseed file cannot be used to preseed some steps, the install can
35
# still be fully automated, since you can pass preseed values to the kernel
36
# on the command line. Just pass path/to/var=value for any of the preseed
37
# variables listed below.
39
# While you're at it, you may want to throw a debconf/priority=critical in
40
# there, to avoid most questions even if the preseeding below misses some.
41
# And you might set the timeout to 1 in syslinux.cfg to avoid needing to hit
42
# enter to boot the installer.
44
# Note that the kernel accepts a maximum of 8 command line options and
45
# 8 environment options (including any options added by default for the
46
# installer). If these numbers are exceeded, 2.4 kernels will drop any
47
# excess options and 2.6 kernels will panic. With kernel 2.6.9 or newer,
48
# you can use 32 command line options and 32 environment options.
50
# Some of the default options, like 'vga=normal' may be safely removed
51
# for most installations, which may allow you to add more options for
54
# It is not possible to use preseeding to set language, country, and
55
# keyboard. Instead you should use kernel parameters. Example:
56
# languagechooser/language-name=English
57
# countrychooser/shortlist=US
58
# console-keymaps-at/keymap=us
60
#### Network configuration.
62
# Of course, this won't work if you're loading your preseed file from the
63
# network! But it's great if you're booting from CD or USB stick. You can
64
# also pass network config parameters in on the kernel params if you are
65
# loading preseed files from the network.
67
# netcfg will choose an interface that has link if possible. This makes it
68
# skip displaying a list if there is more than one interface.

#d-i netcfg/confirm_static boolean true

121
# If you have a way to get a recipe file into the d-i environment, you can
123

125
# If not, you can put an entire recipe in one line. This example creates
126

# locations! To drive that home, and because it's generally useful, here's

355
# file. More that one file can be listed, separated by spaces; all will be
356
# loaded. The included files can have preseed/include directives of their
357
# own as well. Note that if the filenames are relative, they are taken from
358

# More flexibly, this runs a shell command and if it outputs the names of

363
# on a particular usb storage device (in this case, a built-in card reader):
364
#d-i preseed/include_command string \
365
# if $(grep -q "GUID: 0aec3050aec305000001a003" /proc/scsi/usb-storage-*/*); \
366
# then echo kraken.cfg; else echo otherusb.cfg; fi
368
# To check the format of your preseed file before performing an install,
369
# you can use debconf-set-selections:
370
# debconf-set-selections -c preseed.cfg
