Is it possible to include a stable repository in the testing installer?
I would like to create one iso that can install either testing or stable without needing any network connection.
I merged the 5.0.6 pool/dist structure with that from a testing weekly build, then remastered the iso.
With the new image, I can install testing just fine. I'm also able to copy the pool/dist structure and point sources.list to a deb file:/path/to/pool-dist/dir entry and it will install testing and stable packages. So it seems the pool/dist structure is functional.
When I try to preseed the suite with the following preseed file, (with DEBCONF_DEBUG=5 set), I get an error in syslog, and it hums along installing the testing release.
I'm assuming there is more to this then just including the stable repository and setting a d-i bit. Anyone have any pointers?
