The problem here is that iputils-ping is installed by debootstrap, because of its Priority. However debootstrap knows nothing about Recommends. I imagine iputils-ping and d-i need to figure out something together. Maybe it's best to override the Priority of linux-sysctl-defaults to important, too. Chris
