I am, but the docs seem to suggest that these are only relevant to the build and live stages, and my concern was the as-installed configuration. Is there any point having access to a debian repository when running "live"? > d-i passwd/root-login boolean false > d-i mirror/country string manual > d-i mirror/protocol string https > d-i mirror/https/hostname string deb.debian.org > d-i mirror/https/directory string /debian > d-i mirror/https/proxy string > d-i apt-setup/use_mirror boolean true > d-i apt-setup/non-free boolean true > d-i apt-setup/contrib boolean true This seems to be the answer, as I mentioned earlier. It's not 100% obvious that the way to get sudo is to preseed the root password and the way to avoid having _no_ repository is to preseed a mirror. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912
