Bug#621769: debian-installer: fails to load preseed file from local media

[Yves-Alexis Perez <corsac@debian.org>]

Package: debian-installer
Severity: normal

Hey,

it seems that preseed/file doesn't work at all.

I'm using the netboot files (so linux kernel and initrd.gz). I've tried
various setups:

preseed/file=/hd-media/foo.cfg
preseed/file=file:///hd-media/foo.cfg

Looking at the content of the initrd it seems that there is nothing
mounting the media nor anything done to handle preseed/file. I've found
stuff for handling preseed/url but nothing for the file scheme.

Regards,
