Trouble with automated install - preseeding hostname and domain fails.



I'm working on a fully automated install, using the preseeding examples 
in the sarge install guide as well as those found on 
http://kitenet.net/~joey/d-i/preseed/

Most of the preseeding seems to work (partitioning, base config, etc.), 
but no matter what strings i throw at netcfg/get_hostname and 
netcfg/get_domain I end up being presented with thoses two questions 
anyway. I've even had a go at adding them to the kernel append-line, 
just to see what happened. Nothing has worked so far.

I'm netbooting using PXE, and getting all files from a local mirror. The 
preseed-file is fetched via http.

I'm using installer-files picked up from an official mirror on the 18th 
of April (current). Any ideas as to what might be wrong?
