I am installing Debain Stable/Weezy (netinstall) in VirtualBOX using
preseed.cfg on a i386 host and I am having a few problems.
1. Software deselection
What is the correct command for no installed packages (bare CLI)?
tasksel tasksel/first multiselect none
-or-
tasksel tasksel/first multiselect ""
-or-
tasksel tasksel/first multiselect
2. Hostname
I tried both
d-i netcfg/hostname somehost
-and-
d-i netcfg/get_hostname string somehost
but in both cases the host gets set as "debian". I tried both at the same time
but still the host is set as "debian".
I use "d-i netcfg/choose_interface select auto" for network settings.
Thank you and happy celebrations.
