Fixed address in preseeding file has no effect, > d-i netcfg/get_hostname string unassigned-hostname > d-i netcfg/get_domain string unassigned-domain has no effect The problem seems to be located in: branches/d-i/sarge/packages/netcfg/netcfg-common.c: fprintf(fp, "127.0.0.1\tlocalhost.localdomain\tlocalhost") I tried the piece of code that writes hosts file from trunc with no effect I tend to believe that in dhcp the hostname shouldn't be written at the end of 127.0.0.1 line Cheers Christian
