I now realize we were asking the same questions. The simplest approach would seem to be using a USB installer, that would require no remastering of an ISO image. Chain loading a preseed configuration file comes close to what you want - but it does require customising the original preseed.cfg:- http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/tmp/en.i386/apbs05.html#preseed-chainload <snipped> There's a good overview of the preseed process here:- http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/doc/internals/ch02.html Unfortunately it has tables in it. The debian wiki has some links to various preseed references, unfortunately they mostly seem dated:- http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/Preseed And I'm assuming the bsd iso you've chosen supports these options.
