Hello.
I have a preseed file, all runs ok, except install network manually,
always install DHCP, I have disabled DHCP and debconf is well
configured, I have four problems :
1 - For install network without enable dhcp I must write when boot:
netcfg/disable_dhcp=true preseed/url=ftp://192.168.x.x/preseed.cfg
2 - I must enter network info manually, all network info in preseed.cfg
is not used
3 - hostname present in preseed.cfg is not entered, I must change this
manually after first boot
4 - domain name present in preseed.cfg is not entered, I must change
this manually after first boot
All others parameters run ok, my preseed.cfg is appended to end..any
help for solve this will be appreciated.
Josep

### Network configuration
# netcfg will choose an interface that has link if possible. This makes it
# skip displaying a list if there is more than one interface.
#d-i netcfg/choose_interface select auto
# To pick a particular interface instead:
d-i netcfg/choose_interface select eth0
# If you have a slow dhcp server and the installer times out waiting for
# it, this might be useful.

# If you prefer to configure the network manually, uncomment this line and
# the static network configuration below.
d-i netcfg/disable_dhcp true
# If you want the preconfiguration file to work on systems both with and
# without a dhcp server, uncomment these lines and the static network
# configuration below.

### Network console

### Partitioning
# If the system has free space you can choose to only partition that space.
#d-i partman-auto/init_automatically_partition select biggest_free
# Alternatively, you can specify a disk to partition. The device name must
# be given in traditional non-devfs format.
# Note: A disk must be specified, unless the system has only one disk.
# For example, to use the first SCSI/SATA hard disk:
#d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/sda
# In addition, you'll need to specify the method to use.
