This is the /etc/apt/sources.list that I get when using preseed:

# 

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux buster-DI-rc1 _Buster_ - Official RC amd64 NETINST 20190411-22:32]/ buster main

deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux buster-DI-rc1 _Buster_ - Official RC amd64 NETINST 20190411-22:32]/ buster main

kvm -m 4096 -localtime     -drive file=debian.qcow2,if=virtio     -usbdevice tablet -k en-gb -vga virtio -cdrom /srv/software/debian-buster-DI-rc1-amd64-netinst.iso -boot d
