Hi, I have been playing with d-i recently to install Debian on NSA325[1]. I've got d-i runnin and I have installed Debian more or less successfuly. There were some issues with kernel packages and I had to run shell in d-i to manuall install linux-image (and some other packages) but that is not the issue I'd like to write about now.
To get uImage and uInitrd for my device I have modifed build/config/armel/kirkwood/network-console.cfg Q1. What is the difference between (the purpose of) network-console.cfg and netboot.cfg? Q1-a. If I want to prepare a patch for d-i to support NSA325 should I modify netboot.cfg too? Q1-b. Is there any tutorial or a checklist how to port d-i to a new platform? I would like to prepare preseed.cfg to automate installation and I'd like d-i to download authorized_keys file so I put d-i network-console/authorized_keys_url string ftp://192.168.1.1/pub/openssh-key in the preseed.cfg. However, I can't find it in /.ssh/authorized_keys on a running d-i and it seems that this value is used during installation[2] of network-console which makes it kind of useless for uImage with the network-console preinstalled? Q2. Is it possible to download authorized_keys onto a d-i image with the network-console package preinstalled?
