This is exactly the setup that will happen when upgrading a machine from Wheezy to Jessie, for example, and will lead to machines not being bootable after the upgrade! The obvious fix is to clone the settings from the first stanza here to the second. It's also worth checking any *other* supported machine types for the same bug.

For those new to Mordac, get a first impression at http://dilbert.com/strip/2007-11-16 And http://dilbert.com/search_results?terms=Mordac for a complete overview of Mordac, the preventer of information services. In other words: How to cope with nonsense like security is more important than usability? It's not nonsense. Yes, if you boot off PXE, then it's fine if the network contains preseeding data. After all, you booted off PXE, so either your network is fine (and nothing to worry about) or it isn't (and then using a preseeding file off the network isn't going to make matters much worse, since you've already *booted* untrusted code). But if you boot off CD-ROM or USB or some such? Then the situation is much different. While I agree that having preseeding in that case can be useful, I can also understand the POV that the system *defaulting* to using such a preseed file is a bad idea. Let's say you buy a new laptop, take it out of the packaging while on the train home, pop in a USB stick with d-i on it, and boot. Somewhere on the way home, your train waits in a train station for a few minutes, during which time it picks up the wireless connection and does DHCP there. Should it trust any preseeding data that it got from that connection? I don't think so, but currently this *does* happen. -- It is easy to love a country that is famous for chocolate and beer -- Barack Obama, speaking in Brussels, Belgium, 2014-03-26 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
