I think you want to s,debconf/language,debian-installer/language,. Compare https://michael.kjorling.se/debian-12-bookworm-preseed/ under the B.4.1 heading about half way down the page. > Similar with the menu where the desktop environment is selected. > I want LXDE and "SSH Server". I always drop back into the menu. > I have tried: > > d-i pkgsel/include string openssh-server > d-i tasksel/desktop multiselect lxde Unless that's been changed recently, that doesn't look quite right. My corresponding (without any GUI) is: tasksel tasksel/first multiselect standard, ssh-server d-i pkgsel/upgrade select full-upgrade By all means feel free to use mine as a starting point if you want. -- Michael Kjörling 🔗 https://michael.kjorling.se
