Package: netcfg
Version: 1.184
With both the Bookworm alpha2 and rc1 netinstaller, I am prompted to confirm the preseeded hostname (also sent via DHCP), preventing unattended installation.
The very same preseed file did not show any such prompt neither in Buster nor Bullseye.
The prompt is pre-filled with the correct hostname (not the FQDN, just the hostname part), but of course this prevents unattended preseed installation.
Relevant logs follow, hostname and FQDN modified to examples.
Potentially relevant kernel commandline parameters:
netcfg/disable_dhcp=false ethdetect/prompt_missing_firmware=false hw-detect/load_firmware=false locale=en_US.UTF-8 hostname=laptop.example.com domain=example.com
Potentially relevant part of preseed file:
d-i ethdetect/prompt_missing_firmware boolean false
d-i netcfg/choose_interface select auto
d-i netcfg/get_hostname string laptop.exmaple.com
d-i netcfg/get_domain string example.com
d-i netcfg/wireless_wep string
d-i hw-detect/load_firmware boolean true
Relevant part of installer syslog:
Apr 6 16:56:31 netcfg[1051]: DEBUG: State is now 1
Apr 6 16:56:31 netcfg[1051]: DEBUG: State is now 2

Apr 6 16:56:31 netcfg[1051]: INFO: DHCP hostname: "laptop.example.com"
Apr 6 16:56:31 netcfg[1051]: DEBUG: laptop.example.com is a valid FQDN
Apr 6 16:56:31 netcfg[1051]: DEBUG: We have a real FQDN
Apr 6 16:56:31 netcfg[1051]: DEBUG: Preseeding domain from global: example.com
< at this point, the prompt for the hostname is shown, pre-filled with "laptop" >
