> 1) https://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/Preseed#Custom_preseed_files I remember reading that document a little while ago when I first got my hands dirty attempting to preseed some VM. Regarding template files discussed in the section: https://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/Preseed#Preseeding_and_the_installer.27s_debconf_templates I find "sed | awk | sed | sed | sed | awk | sed" style approaches completely horrifying and for that purpose it made a lot more sense to me to just do: git clone https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/d-i.git to get the packages and template files where I can search them locally. But I'm still a newbie in this area so I'm far away from having much understanding what I'm doing or any confidence or ability to recommend ways of doing things.
