In our case, the installation procedure is mostly driven by a preseed.cfg and I had to change the default d-i priority to critical. The critical priority of d-i proved to be a good choice because of the sane defaults and because it allowed us to keep the preseed.cfg quite simple. However for only 2 or 3 extra packages I need to lower priority to medium and since I haven't found a way to achieve this from within preseed.cfg (Is there a way?), I created an extra .udeb that runs at the last stage, hoping that this would help. Unfortunately the results were not what I expected. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
