Hello :)
I am trying to automate Debian installation in a Dell PowerEdge
server via PXE-boot and preseeding files.
I want to automatically select language, country, keyboard layout,
etc.. and pass preseed file, those are the kernel parameters that are
appending via pxelinux boot:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
label sarge-amd64
kernel deb-amd64/31/linux
append vga=normal initrd=deb-amd64/31/initrd.gz
ramdisk_size=10800 root=/dev/rd/0 devfs=mount,dall rw languagechooser/
language-name=English countrychooser/shortlist=ES console-keymaps-at/
keymap=es preseed/url=http://ks.xxx.net/deb/sarge
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
There are too many boot parameters, so we get a kernel panic:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
Kernel panic: Too many boot env vars at `BOOT_IMAGE=deb-amd64ยด
In idle task - not syncing"
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
So my question is: Is there anyway to auto-select language, country,
keyboard layout, etc.. and preseed a file too by appeding parameters
to the kernel? If I only put preseed parameter I'm prompted to
manually select language, country, etc.. :-(
Regards,
