I have the latest testing netinst (20240722-03:17), and would like to install it on a virtual machine. I have a preseed file on a USB stick. As this is a virtual machine, the virtual hard drive is at vda, and the USB stick shows up at sda.
When I go to load the debconf file, the installer doesn't find it. I then go to a console and manually mount the USB stick on /media. I can then ls the stick, more the preseed file, etc. When I then go back to the installer, it still cannot find the preseed file, and the USB stick has been unmounted. This has worked in the past. I boot from the help screen with the command line: expert auto file=/media/preseed.cfg I notice that the error message indicates that the installer failed to process "file:///media/preseed.cfg" (note the three slashes). -- Does anybody read signatures any more? https://charlescurley.com https://charlescurley.com/blog/
