Hi, We want to pxeboot/preseed a number of servers in to very light JEOS servers, i.e. we don't want the ubuntu-standard package installed, but no matter what I try ubuntu-standard always gets installed. I'm assuming it's being installed by default by tasksel as it's a new install. We've tried overriding the tasks in the pxelinux.cfg/default file
LABEL jeos_preseed
kernel jeos-hardy/ubuntu-installer/i386/linux
append vga=normal
initrd=jeos-hardy/ubuntu-installer/i386/initrd.gz tasksel/tasks=""
locale=en_GB console-setup/layoutcode=gb netcfg/choose_interface=eth0
netcfg/get_hostname=ubuntu preseed/url=http://a.b.c.d/preseed.txt --
and in our preseed.txt
d-i tasksel/first multiselect
d-i tasksel/skip-tasks multiselect standard, server
d-i pkgsel/ubuntu-standard boolean false
yet it still gets installed.
Does anyone know how to stop tasksel from running and/or stop
ubuntu-standard from being installed when we try to preseed?
Thanks,
Rus
