/hd-media is mounted by iso-scan. That will work fine if you're installing from a hd<F11>-media image. Otherwise it won't, and you'll have to put the file somewhere else. d-i does not have one initrd, it has initrds customized for different media types. The file-preseed udeb that handles preseed/file is only present on the hd-media, cdrom, and monolithic initrds. -- see shy jo
