Regarding #257883, "netcfg: Please offer to configure all network interfaces" (wow old bug!) I would also like d-i to let me configure multiple network interfaces. It would be nice if it prompted in expert mode, but since I'm already using preseeding I'd settle for a way to configure additional interfaces using late_command or something. Maybe netcfg could have a flag to indicate you were configuring an additional interface and not to step on the original config?
In case it's useful here's my use case: All our machines have two networks, a public network and a private network. To install I pxe boot a machine using the private network and it gets a throw-away dhcp IP, then loads the preseed file. Then I use the preseed/run trick mentioned in the manual to cause netcfg to run again and prompt me for the real static config of the private network. Then it finishes the install using that new config, but I'd also like to configure the public network before rebooting. Also potentially tricky is after configuring the public network I want the default gateway to be on the public network. Work-arounds welcome.
