Package: debian-installer Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I have been trying to fully automate installing debian on the SolidRun Clearfog through a preseed file. However I cannot seem to skip the first two questions: [!!] Select a language --> English [!!] Select your location --> United Kingdom I looked at the sample at https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/example-preseed.txt To quote "# Preseeding only locale sets language, country and locale." So I put the line d-i debian-installer/locale string en_US but I still get to see the question after booting with setenv bootargs "auto file=/hd-media/preseed.cfg" For reference I have seen this problem with two versions of the debian installer for testing: http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-armhf/current/images/hd-media/hd-media.tar.gz https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/buster_di_alpha3/armhf/iso-cd/debian-buster-DI-alpha3-armhf-netinst.iso and the daily snapshot of today (12/08/2018) https://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/armhf/daily/hd-media/hd-media.tar.gz https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/armhf/iso-cd/debian-testing-armhf-netinst.iso Am I just doing it wrong? I have tried examining the output of debconf-get-selections --installer but I couldn't find something helpful there.
