Re: Little preseed question



Hi

Thanks. Yes, I'm thinking in a little "script" for a late_command, with sed. Like:
d-i preseed/late_command string sed 's/kernel <something>/kernel <something> vga=0x17/g' /target/boot/grub/menu.lst

I think can work...

Hi,

       Not sure if this is what you want, but you can edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst file after installation, so that subsequent bootups follow your preferences therein.

       HTH,
