Re: Automated install entry menu of Debian installer does not ask pressed file path / url

hello,

As strange as it may sound, the "automated install" entry of the
Debian installer CD seems to be broken on Jessie.
When I select "automated install" in the boot menu I am not
prompted (after the usual network setup ) with the dialog to
enter pressed file path/url.
This happens in VirtualBox or on real hardware, either in BIOS or
UEFI mode.
This works fine with wheezy installer.
Anyone met the same issue ?

Best regards

I can confirm the lack of the screen you mention.
I never noticed its lack as it did not cover my use case -- that installing from a physical CD/DVD with preseed.cfg on a flash drive. Not everyone has a network and/or internet bandwidth to make it relevant.
