Does anybody have an update on this? I created a mirror repository of precise, both 32 bit and 64bit on one of my local servers using apt-mirror. I'm trying to do a preseed install from it, but it fails to work...
It says: [!!] Download installer components The installer failed to download a file from the mirror. This may be a problem with your network, or with the mirror. You can choose to retry the download, select a different mirror, or cancel and choose another installation method. Downloading a file failed: - Retry - Change mirror - Cancel My Preseed file looks like this: d-i debian-installer/locale string en_US d-i console-keymaps-at/keymap select us # NETWORK # --- Turn on the following to do manual network config --- # d-i netcfg/disable_autoconfig boolean true # --------------------------------------------------------- # d-i netcfg/get_nameservers string 64.28.104.51 d-i netcfg/get_ipaddress string 207.200.57.126 d-i netcfg/get_netmask string 255.255.255.224 d-i netcfg/get_gateway string 207.200.57.97 d-i netcfg/choose_interface select eth0 d-i netcfg/disable_dhcp boolean true d-i netcfg/dhcp_options select Configure network manually d-i netcfg/confirm_static boolean true d-i netcfg/get_hostname string test d-i netcfg/get_hostname seen false d-i netcfg/get_domain string virt-install d-i mirror/protocol string http d-i mirror/country string manual d-i mirror/http/hostname string ubuntu.myserver.com d-i mirror/http/directory string /ubuntu d-i mirror/http/proxy string d-i clock-setup/utc boolean true d-i time/zone string America/Chicago d-i clock-setup/ntp boolean true # ---- Partitioning ---- # d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/vda d-i partman-lvm/devide_remove_lvm boolean true d-i partman-md/device_remove_md boolean true d-i partman-auto/method string regular d-i partman-lvm/confirm boolean true d-i partman-auto-lvm/guided_size string max # --- Installation all in one partition --- # #d-i partman-auto/choose_recipe select atomic # --- Custom Partitioning --- # # --- One Big Partition --- # d-i partman-auto/expert_recipe string \ condpart :: \ 1024 2048 10000000 ext4 \ $primary{ } $bootable{ } \ method{ format } format{ } \ use_filesystem{ } filesystem{ ext4 } \ mountpoint{ / } \ . \ 2048 1024 2048 linux-swap \ method{ swap } format{ } \ . \ d-i partman/default_filesystem string ext4 d-i partman/confirm_write_new_label boolean true d-i partman/choose_partition select finish d-i partman/confirm boolean true d-i partman/confirm_nooverwrite boolean true # ---- Users ---- # d-i passwd/user-fullname string Hello World d-i passwd/username string helloworld d-i passwd/user-password-crypted password $abcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdef d-i user-setup/allow-password-weak boolean true tasksel tasksel/first multiselect standard d-i pkgsel/include string openssh-server vim sysstat ntp ntpdate munin munin-node munin-common snmp snmpd aptitude bash-completion bash bwm-ng acpid acpi-support d-i pkgsel/upgrade select safe-upgrade d-i pkgsel/language-packs multiselect en d-i pkgsel/update-policy select none d-i pkgsel/updatedb boolean false popularity-contest popularity-contest/participate boolean false d-i finish-install/keep-consoles boolean true d-i grub-installer/only_debian boolean true d-i grub-installer/with_other_os boolean true d-i finish-install/reboot_in_progress note # --- The following Line allows networking configuration of the vm to be set from a Network Preseed --- # #d-i preseed/early_command string /bin/killall.sh; /bin/netcfg # ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # d-i preseed/late_command string \ chroot /target wget download.myserver.com/ttyS0.conf ; \ chroot /target mv ttyS0.conf /etc/init ; \ chroot /target wget download.myserver.com/default-script ; \ chroot /target chmod +x default-script ; \ chroot /target ./default-script I've substituted out all sensitive information ;-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/775670 Title: Using local mirror fails, preseed always hits us.archive.ubuntu.com To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/preseed/+bug/775670/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
