Maybe we reach the goal faster if we understand what the "cubic" developer wants us to do by reading the message that appears on top of the preseed tab ? Some step is missed and I'm not able to understand which one : give a look here : https://ibb.co/9N0zL2PIl giorno mar 11 ott 2022 alle ore 21:32 Mario Marietto <marietto2008@gmail.com> ha scritto:I always choose "Graphical Debian Installer" ,but I have to curb your enthusiasm. Yesterday I added the preseed.cfg file inside the /d-i/gtk/initrd.gz file and it has been ignored as well.Il giorno mar 11 ott 2022 alle ore 21:16 Thomas Schmitt <scdbackup@gmx.net> ha scritto:Hi,
i should have looked into the boot/grub/grub.cfg file for initrd usage:
...
menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux Live (kernel 5.10.0-18-amd64)" {
linux /live/vmlinuz-5.10.0-18-amd64 boot=live components splash quiet "${loopback}"
initrd /live/initrd.img-5.10.0-18-amd64
}
... many language choices with the same initrd ...
menuentry "Graphical Debian Installer" {
linux /d-i/gtk/vmlinuz append video=vesa:ywrap,mtrr vga=788 "${loopback}"
initrd /d-i/gtk/initrd.gz
}
menuentry "Debian Installer" {
linux /d-i/vmlinuz "${loopback}"
initrd /d-i/initrd.gz
}
...
So which GRUB menu item did you choose in your test whether your preseed.cfg
in /d-i/initrd.gz works ?
Only "Debian Installer" uses it. "Live" and "Graphical Debian Installer" use
the other two.
Have a nice day :)
