Don't take my comments the wrong way... I think preseeding is great, and
is IMO an extremely important feature. That's why I've been trying to
test it extensively and file bugs. :)
The comments in the example preseed file read to me as if static
addressing was tested & working... if not, that's ok; it's been tested
now. I'll be happy to do whatever I can to help solve the problem, though
my understanding of the netcfg code is not the greatest.
Thanks,
