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 was not set correctly. /usr/ won't work but /home/user will. Command: d-i preseed/late_command string in-target git clone https://github.com/project /home/user/folder for cd /folder I will probably have to use script (cd folder) and start it with source ./scriptnamew. Just sh ./ doesn't work for changing directories. I agree that script would be easier overall, it's just I am a bit shaky on how to start. Let me check if I understood your syntax correctly. "wget -O/target/var/tmp/bootstrap" This creates a file called bootstrap in the selected directory? "http://despair.proulx.com/medley/medley-bootstrap;"; Location from where wget should fetch the script? "in-target sh /var/tmp/bootstrap" No idea what this does. Auto start?
