Hello,

I still cannot reproduce with unpacking the tarball and running

kvm -net nic -net user,tftp=$PWD,bootfile=pxelinux.0 -drive -m 1G

and passing the kernel parameters.

Does the mangling happen right from the first screen, or after some
steps?

It could be useful to share your preseed.cfg (take care of removing any
hardcoded password).
