Dear all,

I would like to automate a Debian installation with a pressed file. The
challenge I am facing is that I am forced to use a proxy to fetch the preseed
conf file from the mentioned URL. Any ideas how to solve this? I have checked
the developer website (http://hands.com/d-i/) but the proxy argument is not
mentioned.

You can preseed any question from the kernel command line, including the proxy
one. The general syntax is:

question=value

In the case of the proxy question, that would be:

mirror/http/proxy=http://proxy.example.com:3128/

Dear all,

I would like to automate a Debian installation with a pressed file. The 
challenge I am facing is that I am forced to use a proxy to fetch the preseed 
conf file from the mentioned URL. Any ideas how to solve this? I have checked 
the developer website (http://hands.com/d-i/ ) but the 
proxy argument is not mentioned.

Thanks and best regards,
Patrick
