It created the correct /target/etc/fstab. How can I diagnose > why this didn't get automatically done? ok, the script itself runs. So, please take a look at /usr/share/debian-installer/mount/mount.sh this script should run the fstab script at the following position. # # create now the filesystems do_mount() { [...] # update fstab for baseinstaller sh /usr/lib/prebaseconfig.d/40fstab return 0 } maybe you can put a "set -x" before the 40fstab file? If the above file doesn exist, then you have an outdated version of di-utils. Then please take a look at /var/lib/dpkg/info/di-utils-mount-partitions.postinst These must also be the same lines as above. Oh, and btw it works for me here.
