late_command not late enough?



Hello,

I am attempting (and failing) to achieve these final two tasks for my preseeded deployment of Wheezy to our computation cluster.

1) Add an NFS mount to fstab. partman seems to be unaware that NFS exists.
2) Setup network bonding. netcfg does not support bonding (and does not intend to).

My current approach is to use late_command to fix both of these problems. For fstab, I tried to simply append /etc/fstab; however, partman runs all if its scripts *after* late_command is executed and overwrites my change.

I tried to completely replace my /etc/network/interfaces file; however, netcfg runs all of its scripts *after* late_command and clobbers my changes. This is detailed in bug #709017.

I briefly attempted to create my own script (/usr/lib/finish-install.d/89true_late_command) to run after almost everything else, but -- as of yet -- I am unable to get debian-installer to execute it.

Any help and/or insight is most welcome.

---Alex
