I think it does, yes.  I used network preseeding, and network preseeding
happens later in the process.  I also set priority=high rather than
priority=critical.

Hrm, I might need to note that I preseed it through the kernel
command-line. Maybe that makes a difference?

Kind regards

Unfortunately I can't reproduce this. Could you provide a syslog of an
installation where that's happening? And probably
/var/lib/cdebconf/questions.dat as well.

Kind regards and thanks

Bug#851537: Please support preseeding an empty domain to prevent prompting

2017-01-15 Thread Josh Triplett
Package: netcfg
Severity: wishlist

netcfg supports preseeding the domain via netcfg/get_domain, but
providing an empty values results in the installer still prompting.
Please consider providing a way to preseed an empty domain name, to
completely suppress the prompt for one.

Thanks,
Josh Triplett
