HI all, I work on infrastructure provisioning automation (Digital Rebar Provision). We're adding in Buster support right now. Bumped in to an issue with d-i and our preseed we normally use. A working Stretch preseed "mostly works" - but requires interactive input for "mirror hostname" and "mirror directory".
I tried to set: d-i mirror/protocol string https d-i mirror/http/hostname string mirrors.edge.kernel.org d-i mirror/http/directory string /debian However, this causes the installation to fail with a hard error. My question: Are there any pointers for changes around the "select-mirror" processing bits, and/or the preseed that need to be made to support Buster for automated deployment? I have dug through the News archives for the Buster release, and see that there are changes around the Mirror list, and references to other changes, but I could not find a cohesive list of what might have changed. My apologies if I missed something there.
