(Sending to debian-boot since cdrom-detect is maintained by Debian Install System Team.)
Hi, I am using debian-cd to create a custom Squeeze CD with a preseed.cfg file. The ISOs install fine on most platforms except when installing via DRAC with the ISO mounted as "Virtual Media". With DRAC, the install fails the "Detect and mount CDROM" step with "No common CDROM drive detected message". At this stage, the virtual cdrom device is available at /dev/sr1. There is no device available at /dev/sr0. >From another console (alt-f2), I am able to execute "mount /dev/sr1 /cdrom" and the installation proceeds and completes with no issues. I believe that the root cause is the debconf default value for "cdrom-detect/cdrom_device" : d-i cdrom-detect/cdrom_device string /dev/sr0 Question: Is there some preseed configuration that would convince cdrom-detect to find and mount /dev/sr1 ? I tried specifying the null string for "cdrom-detect/cdrom_device" in the preseed file. That did not help.
