I think there is a typo in the above. To perhaps save some grief for someone reading the archives later I believe all of the above "/,/" uses should have said "/./". That comma slipped in where it should be a dot. And so readers don't need to search for it: http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/apbs02.html.en The /./ bit is used to indicate a root, relative to which subsequent paths can be anchored (for use in preseed/include and preseed/run). This allows files to be specified either as full URLs, paths starting with / that are thus anchored, or even paths relative to the location where the last preseed file was found. This can be used to construct more portable scripts where an entire hierarchy of scripts can be moved to a new location without breaking it, for example copying the files onto a USB stick when they started out on a web server.
