Headaches while trying to test my own custom d-i modules

[Christian Perrier <bubulle@debian.org>]

Well, I'm still stucked at the following :

I want to check modifications I make to d-i modules (mostly for i18n
stuff, but that's not the point).

Up to now, I figured out how to do this for packages which are
included in build images created by the build system in build/ -->
created udebs and put them in localudebs. 

So, for languagechooser and such packages, that's fine. I put my udebs
there, then "TYPE=cdrom make image". Then "mkisofs  -r -J -b
cdrom-image.img -o test.iso dest /mnt/loop" where /mnt/loop is manty's
ISO image mounted.

However, for other packages, such as partitioner, I'm really puzzled.

Thourgh IRC, I've been directed to build my own APT repository. I thus
read the online doc about this, uses apt-ftparchive. I now have a nice
APT archive with my custom partitioner package on it.

But, how the hell do I use it ? :-)))

The solution is probably stupid....but I'm stupid enough and cannot
find it.

So, pleeease, if you manage to have a few minutes for answering this
mail, give me the Final Hint.
