Package: preseed
Severity: normal
Hi,
I downloaded debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso and tried to install it in VMware with auto url=xcc.demon.nl
This works with Etch, but with Testing, it asks language, country, priority and then it wants to check the media integrity.
The check passes, and then an install step fails. It's the execute a shell step.
Then I get back to this menu: http://xcc.demon.nl/temp/preseed.png
at which point the preseed file hasn't been fetched yet.
Greetings,
Olaf

After checking by running an install with 'auto url=xcc.demon.nl' myself,
this is exactly the case. Therefore closing this report.
