Dear friends of debian-boot, I am reading Debian installer documentation in order to know how to execute customized scripts during Debian installation process. I found that it is possible to build an udeb package and include it in Debian installer using udeb_include file in my customized Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 CD.
I also read that it is possible to execute scripts if udeb package place them in /usr/lib/finish-install.d directory (with an appropiate name). Well, my script runs some commands but one of them needs an user input, like a password from the user, for example: cryptsetup -y create private /dev/sda5 This command ask the user for a password, so I would like to know whether Debian installer is going to permit the user entering the password (prompt) or I have to to do something. Another questions is: which is the best practice to run customized scripts: putting commands in postinst file or a file inside /usr/lib/finish-install.d directory? Could anyone please help me?
