Hi Andrei, I would really like to use the preseed config file to configure my /e/n/i file but right now it's just not possible. I need to setup ethernet bonding with VLAN and bridging. All netcfg in the deban installer can do is simple wireless and ethernet so that's why I have to use a late_command script to "patch" my /e/n/i file.
