Hi Holger, Sure, there might be some confusion around both options, but… Holger Wansing <hwansing@mailbox.org> (2023-02-19): > While the second part is confusing, when you only look at that part alone, > it's even worth, when you read both paragraphs together. > Both questions are about loading or not loading firmware? > So one of this is superfluous? > > Or is the second one only for prompting / not prompting, and loading is > always tried? > > This might confuse users, maybe change it. The second part is existing code and that's an intense mess, so I haven't touched it at all. See also #1029543, which has received almost no answers. (My first instinct was to whack it altogether but supposedly it makes sense to keep support for it…) The installation guide is pretty clear about what the first option does. If someone dives into preseed and cannot be bothered to have a look at the official d-i doc, that's on them… Maybe add something in the comments above the first option, clarifying that it takes precedence over the second one?
