What version of the installer was this? If you're using the latest builds, the variables and their contents have been shortened. Something like this should work, and be short enough: languagechooser/language-name=German countrychooser/shortlist=DE console-keymaps-at/keymap=de I'm not 100% sure of the correct values for Germany here, but it uses country codes, and the countrychooser variable has changed. If you're still out of room, post your append line, and I can probably find something you can lop off of it. > it is also not possible to put file-preseed and network-preseed into the > initrd since they provide the same files. file-preseed is removed if > network-preseed is installed. It's true that they contain some files by the same names, but I don't see why installing them both wouldn't work.. although I don't know why you're want to, really. > having three preseed packages which can coexist in the same initrd: > 1. initrd-preseed: like file-preseed but does not depend on any > cdrom-detect or mount-floppy. but it only can read files which are on > the initrd. this would make it possible to preseed even before the > language-chooser. I guess that's a reasonable wishlist. File a bug on the preseed package. -- see shy jo
