Tweaking preseed.cfg for semi-custom installs
I'm new to Debian (actually ALL *nix) and am doing a series
of test installs from DVD on a laptop dedicated to this.
The twofold purpose is to learn the ins/outs of Debian and
decide just what I want in final installation.
I have tweaked
http://www.debian.org/releases/squeeze/example-preseed.txt
to meet many of my requirements.
There are three items I would like to set manually on each
install:
1. User name - effectively I'd be using it to remind how I
intended to use that test variation -- there may be 3-5 installs
present on the hard drive. My assumption is that
commenting out
d-i passwd/user-fullname string Debian User
would accomplish that.
2. Manually partition disk on each install
3. Manually select use of Lilo or Grub as boot loader - YES
responsibility for strange errors will be my own ;/
I have no idea on how to accomplish the last two.
TIA
