Re: Installing Debian remotely in an unmanaged VPS

I see.

I have noticed that there's a preseeding parameter 
network-console/authorized_keys_url, which may point to an URL. Is 
there a way I can *embed* my SSH public key in the initrd and then use 
file:/// or similar and likewise embed the public key to be used by the 
server?

Will it matter which keyboard layout I set in d-i keymap select 
<LAYOUT> (since it's going to be installed and then managed through SSH)?

Regards and thanks a lot.

P.S: The tutorial in
<http://www.papegaaiduiker.be/index.php/local-or-remote-ubuntu-debian-re-installers> 
involves downloading an ISO from that user's server, and at any rate it 
seems like the ISO image has to be keep in a partition. I will follow 
the procedure of making a custom net boot image with preseeding.
