Works like a charm on Wheezy! Thank you everybody and a special thanks to Bob
for the working code!

Hm, it seems I haven't clearly clarified what I want to do.
I'm using preseed file (through "auto url=" option) to install Debian Jessie in
a VM. I would like to configure preseed in such way that it accomplishes two
things.
1. It downloads a script from github (we figured out that part)
2. Sta

That output show should up in vt 4. Use Alt-F4 at installation time
to see the output there.
I would make the output more visible. I would make it LOUD.
#!/bin/bash
echo
Sorry for the confusion, http://file indicates the actual URL fo the file.
My simple test script is located at https://raw.github.com/drgdel/a/master/1
Content:
#!/bin/bash
echo Hello World

The example I gave was verbatim what I am using and is what works for me.
The above uses a different URL and one that doesn't look valid to
me. Is that a liter
Thanks for the detailed answer Bob. I tried different things gathered from the
Internet, even copying your exact command, but to no avail.
"d-i preseed/late_command string wget -O/target/var/tmp/bootstrap http://file;
in-target sh /var/tmp/bootstrap"
Error 127. I believe the problem is that wge

However this solution is no explanation. I wouldn't want to clone
into /usr anyway and so think /home/something is better. But
I have included git install in the preseed (d-i pkgsel/include string git).
After I log on, running "git" offers a list of available git commands (bisect,
branch,.tag) so the installation that way is successful.
I was able to find the solution (for now).
The problem was that the directory w

OK, new problem.
If choose to install in user (/usr/ or /user/ as opposed to /root/) no
directory is created.
Command used:
d-i preseed/late_command string in-target git clone https://github.com/project
/usr/project
Any idea how to make the cloning work in /usr/?
For whatever reason "d-i preseed/late_command string in-target git clone
https://github.com/adrelanos/Whonix";, like Eero suggested, doesn't work. No
folder is created.
I did find the solution though.
You need to set the target directory and it works then.

Thank you Zenaan for the link.
You are right, I am very inexperienced when it comes to git however the command
used with the preseed was
"git clone https://github.com/project"; (d-i preseed/late_command string
in-target git clone https://github.com/project). I just forgot to type it in
