Bug#805291: preseed: Offer a way to override initrd-level preseeding with kernel command line preseeding



Hi Raphael,

BTW would you happen to know if the example for checksums on CDs is
relevant any more?

  - if you're booting a remastered CD:
    preseed/file=/cdrom/preseed.cfg
    preseed/file/checksum=5da499872becccfeda2c4872f9171c3d

which is supposedly an example where one might specify the checksum for
the CD's preseed.cfg -- it strikes me that a) this is a bit pointless
(although it would catch corruption of the media), and b) it presumably
doesn't work any more, because that file will already have been used by
the time we get to the kernel parameters.

Cheers, Phil.
