Here's my preseed.cfg, it's only minor changes from the example file found here: https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/example-preseed.txt On Sun, Dec 19, 2021 at 11:06 PM Junk wrote: > Sure, I can provide you with my preseed file - tomorrow, it's 11pm here > now. > > However, this is before I've provided it to the system.

Sure, I can provide you with my preseed file - tomorrow, it's 11pm here now. However, this is before I've provided it to the system. This happens when trying to configure the network. I don't enter the URL for the preseed file until after configuring the network... /Jonas Bygdén > 19 dec. 2021 kl. 23:00 skrev Holger Wansing : > > Hi, > > Jonas Bygden wrote (Tue, 16 Nov 2021 14:02:05 +0100): >> * What was the outcome of this action? >> "Invalid passphrase" 'The WPA/WPA2 PSK passphrase was either too long (more >> than 64 characters) or too short (less than 8 characters).' >> Screenshot: https://bygden.nu/tmp/IMG_6212.jpeg >> * What outcome did you expect instead? >> Network to be configured. > > > > Jonas Bygden wrote (Tue, 16 Nov 2021 17:39:29 +0100): >> This does *not* happen when booting and installing normally from the same >> ISO, only when selecting Advanced Option -> Automatic install - both >> Graphical and Curses installers. > > So, if you use the "Automatic install" entry from the installer's boot > menu, you are using preseeding?

Bug#999771:
This does *not* happen when booting and installing normally from the same ISO, only when selecting Advanced Option -> Automatic install - both Graphical and Curses installers.
Bug#999771: debian-installer: netcfg gives "Invalid passphrase" before asking for one
Package: debian-installer Version: Whatever version is in the netinst iso Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, *** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? Trying to install bullseye on a laptop using a USB-drive and preseed provided via http. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Boot from USB-drive * What was the outcome of this action? "Invalid passphrase" 'The WPA/WPA2 PSK passphrase was either too long (more than 64 characters) or too short (less than 8 characters).' Screenshot: https://bygden.nu/tmp/IMG_6212.jpeg * What outcome did you expect instead? Network to be configured. Note: This bugreport is submitted using buster (10.11) since I fail to install bullseye because of the problem. It works as expected using a buster iso. It does fail with the same message even with a network cable connected and trying to not use the Wireless interface. -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.11 APT prefers oldstable-updates APT policy: (500, 'oldstable-updates'), (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-18-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled
