I want to create a customized install cd, which is to be used to install routers/firewalls. The router should have a fixed hostname (external-gw). The internal interface (eth0) should get a static address (192.168.1.1). Since this CD is to be used for multiple sites, the domain name part should be asked by d-i at installation time and _not_ be preseeded. The above definition works almost as desired. The only thing is that d-i don't ask for the domain name, although I set the "seen" flag on the netcfg/get_domainname variable. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
